A FOREWORD

"The Foreign Missions Year Book of North America" for 1919,

issued by the Committee of Reference and Counsel by order of the

Foreign Missions Conference of North America, received such anappreciative welcome that the entire edition was exhausted in asurprisingly short time, and all through the year applications werereceived for additional copies which could not be supplied. This wasa gratifying return for the laborious task involved in assembling,

from so wide a range, the record of such a variety of facts andclassifying the material for ready reference in the initial volumeof what it is hoped may prove to be a continuous series reaching far

into the future.

Its varied and inclusive content, its brevity of statement, its

accuracy of detail seem to serve a growing demand of this busy,

progressive and increasingly scientific age. In the evolution of the

Kingdom of Christ, the various branches of the Church and the

different peoples of the World are drawing closer together. Everyethical organization is becoming interested in similar organizationsand their activities and accomplishments are matters of concern to

all others. Therefore, the demand for such a compilation seems to

be a normal one.

Facts are fundamental to conclusions and the fuel of enthusiasm.The inexhaustible reservoir of facts in the "incomparable Mis-sionary Research Library," its corps of experts, working with Mr.Burton St. John, Director of its Bureau of Statistics and Research,the cooperation, available on call, of the Secretaries of all Boards in

America engaged in Foreign Missions work, and the special commit-tee in charge of preparing and issuing the Year Book, together withtheir growing experience in this particular work, make possiblecontinual improvement. Some evidence of this may be found in

the present volume.While it is not as perfect as its compilers hoped it might be, nor

as it is hoped its successors may be, it will prove valuable to the verybusy leaders of thought and strategists in method who appreciateaccuracy and prize the most up-to-date information available.

Cordial thanks are extended to all who have assisted and especially

to those who have given their generous cooperation by preparingthe articles to which their names are attached.

THE HOME BASE

THE NORTH AMERICAN HOME BASERev. Charles R. Watson, D.D.

The Methodist Centenary

One of the most powerful influences affecting the programsand activities of foreign missionary agencies in North Americaduring the year 1919 was the remarkable success achieved by the

Methodist Episcopal Church in its Centenary Movement._Aiming

originally at $80,000,000 for a five year program, the splendid figure

of $113,000,000 was reached in gifts and pledges by the NorthernChurch; while the Southern Church reached the high figure of

$54,000,000. Such success became a challenge to all the Churches.

Nor was it the financial result that constituted the chief challenge.

Long before the final financial result was known, the high aims, the

comprehensive program and the thoroughgoing educational methodsadopted by the Methodist Centenary Movement had stimulated other

bodies, so that in a great number of churches Forward Movementswere launched. The distinctive characteristics of these movementswere: first, a unification of the plans of the several Boards within

such Churches, resulting in a unified budget, a unified campaign of

education and a unified canvass for funds, within each Church

;

second, a serious effort to survey the responsibilities of each Churchso as to discover the full scope of the task, measured in money,workers and spiritual dynamic ; third, an attempt to work out a five

year program looking toward the accomplishment of the task.

The Interchurch World Movement

The logical result of the wide adoption of these conceptions,

methods and plans was the proposal for an Interchurch Movementwhich would unite all the Churches of North America in a surveyof the task of American Protestantism, in a campaign of educationand finally in a campaign for funds, whose national character, unitedappeal and comprehensive scope would make it irresistible. Theproposal was submitted to the Foreign Missions Conference at its

annual meeting at New Haven, Connecticut, January 14-17, 1919,

and received hearty endorsement. It was similarly endorsed byother missionary and Church conferences and became organizedunder the title of "The Interchurch World Movement." As its

program affected the home base programs and activities of all theChurches, this Movement may properly be said to constitute the mostoutstanding and determining feature of the Home Base activities ofall the missionary agencies of North America for the year 1919.The record of the varied undertakings of this Movement, both upon

9

io THE NORTH AMERICAN HOME BASE

its own initiative and through the Forward Movements of the coop-erating Churches, would constitute a volume, for which there is noteven space for a summary here. The following may be enumeratedamong the most important services being rendered by the Movementto foreign missions: it is carrying still farther forward the surveysof foreign mission fields, previously undertaken by individualmissions or by inter-mission agencies ; it is forcing a definition ofthe requirements of the task for a period of five years; it is

accordingly challenging the Churches to make adequate provisionfor these defined needs ; it is coordinating as never before in aunified plan the separate foreign missionary efforts of North Ameri-can Protestantism; it is suggesting cooperation at the Home Basein innumerable directions never contemplated before; it is develop-ing among the Churches of America a wholesome sense of spiritual

unity as they labor for world evangelization.

Canadian Advance and Cooperation

A separate organization of the Interchurch Movement was effected

in Canada with much the same methods and objectives. With char-acteristic effectiveness, the Canadian societies were working in practi-

cal cooperation some time before the organization of the InterchurchWorld Movement.

Peace Conference Negotiations

American missionary boards followed with much interest andanxiety the negotiations of the Paris Peace Conference. Recogniz-ing that property interests representing millions of dollars wereinvested in lands affected by the Peace settlements, steps were takento make representations such as might safeguard religious andmissionary liberties in the future, particularly in ex-German andex-Turkish territory. The Emergency Committee of CooperatingMissions was charged with this task, and Drs. Barton, Mott andWatson represented the American section of this Committee at

Paris. Unsuccessful efforts were made to. secure a paragraph in

the Covenant. A clause in the Treaty with_Germany saves the

properties of German missions from confiscation and makes them"trust property" which will be entrusted to approved missionaryagencies for carrying on the work in behalf of the native populations.

It is expected that when the Mandates are issued there likewise will

be a section inserted to safeguard missionary liberties. The wholefuture of the League of Nations bears a vital relationship also to this

question.

British Regulations Governing Missions

As a result of War experiences and the War situation the British

Government enacted certain regulations governing the admission of

missions and missionaries to British territories. These regulations,

which exclude German missionaries, commit to the Committee of

Reference and Counsel of the Foreign Missions Conference of

North America the task of scrutinizing the applications of Americanmissionaries for admittance to British territories.

THE NORTH AMERICAN HOME BASE n

Special Aid from American Societies

German missionary work in areas from which German missionswere excluded continued to be the object of special assistance fromAmerica, in part by funds contributed through the Committee ofReference and Counsel and in greater part by assistance extendeddirectly by American societies operating in the same countries, as thePresbyterians in Kamerun and the Lutherans in India. The faminein India led to a special appeal for funds and over $220,000 weresent over to relieve the suffering. Aid to devastated areas in

France came within the scope of the appropriations of several

churches.

Deputations to Foreign Fields

With the termination of the War, a great number of boardsrecognized the imperative necessity of sending abroad their executivesecretaries or still larger deputations, to study the changed situation

in the mission fields committed to their care. The survey work ofthe Interchurch World Movement stimulated such special investiga-

tions. An Educational Commission went to India consisting ofPrincipal A. G. Fraser and Miss M. M. Allan from Great Britainand Prof. D. J. Fleming, Ph.D., representing America. The Federa-tion of Woman's Mission Boards arranged to send a large deputa-tion, made up of representatives of the leading woman's boards, to

China and Japan, to study problems there in connection with workfor women, and it is planned that another deputation later shouldgo out to India. These groups will both work in close cooperationwith the Interchurch World Movement and the Continuation Com-mittees on the fields. The Committee of Reference and Counselreleased ' Mr. C. H. Fahs, secretary of the Library Committee,for a trip which carried him to Japan, China, India, Africa andGreat Britain and yielded large returns in material of priceless

value for research purposes. Among the executive officers of lead-ing missionary boards who went abroad for purposes of missionaryinvestigation and survey were the following : James L. Barton, C. H.Patton, Stanley White, Stephen J. Corey, J. H. Franklin, Paul deSchweinitz, F. M. North, and A. E. Armstrong.

The Young Men's Christian Association

The War work of the Young Men's Christian Association led tothe extension of the work of this Movement to a number of foreignlands, such as Poland, Czecho-Slovakia, Rumania, Greece, and to thenecessity of enlarging the scope of the work in fields previouslyentered, such as China, India and sections of Africa.

Convention at Des Moines, la., December 31, 1919, to January 4, 1920.

12 THE BRITISH HOME BASE

General Financial Record

Reports from the larger Churches indicate a marked increase in

gifts to foreign missions for the year ending in 1919. The total

for North America is $30,872,882 which is an advance of $8,690,059over the report for 1918. It is noteworthy that about^ one half ofthis advance was in the mission boards of the Methodist EpiscopalChurch. In Canada, despite the much heavier drains caused byher longer participation in the war, there was an advance of oversixteen per cent.

THE BRITISH HOME BASEMiss G. A. Gollock

Situation Among the Societies

The year 1918-19, which has seen the close of the world-war andthe slow and troubled dawning of the day of Peace, has been aperiod of lights and shadows in British missionary wo*k. The"Survey of the Effect of the War upon Missions," the first chaptersof which appear in the October number of the International Reviewof Missions, will give within the next four issues some idea of theextent to which missionary operations were interrupted and plansput out of line during the period of the war.

The Year's Finance

On the one hand the income of the larger mission boards showsan increase. The Baptist Missionary Society reports a gain of£14,400 on their general funds and nearly £2,000 on their Women'sAssociation. The China Inland Mission received in Great Britain

in 1918 over £2,600 more than in the previous year. The ChurchMissionary Society, not including its Thankoffering Fund, increasedby over £12,000. The income of the London Missionary Societyfrom ordinary sources was £9,600 above that of the previous year,

though that income was a record one. The Society for the Propa-gation of the Gospel reports an advance of £19,000, the income fromdonations, subscriptions and collections for the General Fund beingfifty per cent above that of fifteen years ago. The United FreeChurch of Scotland shows a very small increase in income fromliving donors, but the funds of the Women's Committee have goneforward. The Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society has risen

more than £14,400 over a record income of last year. A five per cent

increase was asked for ; a ten per cent increase has been given. TheWomen's Auxiliary has also gone forward in receipts.

But on the other hand growing expenditure constitutes a grave andpressing problem. At a time when every Society hears the call to

move forward the heavy loss on exchange cripples advance and bids

fair to imperil the maintenance of existing work. The China InlandMission reports that £1,000 will not now buy as much silver in China

THE BRITISH HOME BASE 13

as could be bought for £400 in 1915. The Church Missionary Society

states that its loss on exchange in the past year amounts to £58,000.

The London Missionary Society finds the cost of silver exchangeparticularly has amounted to £10,000 in the year. Loss under this

heading has sent the expenditure of the United Free Church of

Scotland up £2,400 in its Manchuria Mission alone. The WesleyanMission reports that owing to exchange they lose in China £79 onevery £100, and in India £25 on every £100. During 1919 it is

estimated that the Society will lose in this way about £39,000. Whento all this is added the fact that the increased cost of living is press-

ing so heavily upon missionaries that, at the request of several ofthe societies, a committee has been appointed to report on the wholesituation as to their salaries, it becomes apparent that missionaryfinance is facing problems more serious than any which confrontedit during the war.There has been in Great Britain no parallel to the Interchurch

World Movement in America. The London Missionary Society,

however; is sending its Home Secretary to America to gather sug-gestions for a strong new propaganda at the British Home Base.Meantime, general societies have initiated thankoffering schemes.The Church Missionary Society is asking for a Peace Thankofferingof lives and £500,000; the Society for the Propagation of the Gospelfor a Peace Thankoffering Fund of not less than £250,000.

Missionary Forces

Tabular Statements in the "Survey of the Effect of the War uponMissions," to which reference has already been made, show howseriously the forces of British Missions have been lessened duringthe war. Twelve of the larger British Societies had actually on thefield in 1918 a foreign staff of 4630 as against 4899 at the beginningof the war. The new missionaries sent out in 1917-18 by the sametwelve societies were sixty-three as against two hundred and forty-

five at the earlier date. In 1918 India received from them a rein-

forcement of twenty-eight as against a previous ninety-six, Chinanine as against fifty-four, Africa seventeen as against fifty-four, theNear and Middle East four as against fourteen. And now, whenrecruiting work begins to be active and all societies are urging theneed of men and women for waiting work, the terrible effect of theloss of so much of the best young life of the Church is beingrealized to the full. A long and responsible task in the preparationof missionaries lies ahead.

The Passage Problem

During the war period it was so difficult to obtain permits forwomen missionaries that a Missionary Passport Committee wasformed and succeeded in getting over two hundred and fifty pass-ports

_up to July, 1919. By that time, however, the problem of

shipping accommodation became so acute that the societies found it

necessary to take concerted action. At the time of writing steps are

14 THE BRITISH HOME BASE

being taken to see what provision can be made for the autumncontingent of British missionaries waiting to proceed to their fields.

Other Matters of Interest

Among other matters of interest in home organization may benoted the amalgamation effected by the Baptist Missionary Societywith its Women's Missionary Association and its Medical Auxiliary;the union of the Home and Foreign Committees of the Church Mis-sionary Society and the large increase of provincial representationon the new body; the appointment by the same Society of a Mission-ary Missioner to conduct "Days of Prayer and Gifts," and theholding of a number of "Days of Information for AlissionarySpeakers" in different parts of the country; the opening of a newHostel for the Training of Women Teachers and Nurses, also bythe C. M. S., the formation of a Candidates' Board by the BaptistMissionary Society and of a Candidates' Sub-Committee of Men andWomen by the China Inland Mission ; the development of corporatefellowship, as illustrated by the general conference of the workersof the London Missionary Society followed by a three days' con-ference of missionaries in the autumn of 1919, the holding of the first

conference of missionaries by the Society for the Propagation of theGospel and the first Summer School of the China Inland Mission;and the raising of an Earthquake Restoration Fund by the EnglishPresbyterian Missions for the devastated area in South China andthe initiating of a campaign fund for £100,000 by the Women'sAuxiliary of the Wesleyan Methodist Mission. A twelve-daysUnited Medical Missions Exhibition, in which a number of Societies

took part, was held in London in June and July. Among the

visitors to it were the Queen and Princess Mary.

Changes in Personnel

The outstanding changes in Missionary personnel during the yearhave been the resignation of Bishop Montgomery after a seventeenyear's secretaryship of the S. P. G. and the appointment of BishopKing of Madagascar as his successor, and the death of Sir AndrewFraser, K.C.S.I., late Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, a trustedleader and an honored friend whose service to the cause of missionswas valued throughout the world. Mr. Kenneth Maclennan hasresumed his work as joint Secretary with Mr. J. H. Oldham of the

Conference of Missionary Societies in Great Britain and Ireland,

after two and a half years' absence in Government service.

Conference of Missionary Societies, June, 1919

The eighth annual meeting of the Conference of MissionarySocieties in Great Britain and Ireland sat at Norwood from June18th to 20th. It was reported that three further societies—the

Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, the Jerusalem and the

East Mission, and the Representative Church Council of the Episco-

THE BRITISH HOME BASE 15

pal Church of Scotland—being eligible for membership under the

rules of 1912 had decided to join, increasing the number of societies

constituting the Conference to forty-six. The main addresses at the

Conference were on Missions and Governments and Relations withAmerican and Continental Missions (Mr. J. H. Oldham), Educa-tional Opportunity at the Close of the War (Sir Michael Sadler,

Chairman of the Bengal University Commission), and Co-operation

in the Mission Field (Rev. H. Anderson, Secretary of the NationalMissionary Council of India, and Rev. E. C. Lobenstine, Secretary

of the China Continuation Committee). The principles of co-oper-

ative finance were also considered at length and an importantmemorandum was sent forward to the mission boards (See pp. 11

and 12 of the Conference Report).

Financial Statement of the Conference

The financial statement showed that during 1918-19 British mis-sionary societies had contributed the sum of £2,672-0-7 to co-oper-

ative finance by means of a levy at the rate of 33s per £1,000 of

income on the general account, plus £233-1-9 for the National Mis-sionary Council in India (us per £1,000 expenditure for the societies

working in that field) and £254-11-0 for the China ContinuationCommittee (22s per £1,000). The Conference voted to invite the

societies to approve a budget of £3,565 for 1919-20. Of this, £2,050

is for the Standing Committee of the Conference, to cover salaries,

rent, office expenses (including removal from Edinburgh) etc., £465for the Board of Study for the Preparation of Missionaries, £300 for

the proposed Press Bureau and £750 for the British share of theEmergency Committee Budget. Contributions at the rate of 40sper £1,000 of income will be required from the co-operating societies

if this budget for 1919-20 is to be met. Up to the date of writingthe Societies have been responding well. It was also agreed to

invite further contributions for the National Missionary Council ofIndia, and the China Continuation Committee from the Societies

working in those fields, the amount for which each board is re-

sponsible being calculated on their expenditure in the mission field

concerned. The amount recommended for India was the rupee valueof £300 at par, and for China £1,000.

Other Recommendations

Amongst other matters, the plan for a Press Bureau submittedby the Home Base Committee was approved, the necessary supportwas granted, and Mr. Basil Mathews of the London MissionarySociety was invited to devote part of his time to the work. TheConference also generally approved of plans put forward by theHome Base Committee for the establishment of a general illustrated

missionary magazine for British readers with a view to enlarging thecircle of those interested in missions. The London MissionarySociety has generously released Mr. Basil Mathews to edit this

paper in addition to his work for the Press Bureau. The Con-

16 THE BRITISH HOME BASE

ference has no financial liability for the proposed magazine. TheUnited Council for Missionary Education was encouraged by resolu-

tion of the Conference to enter the field of more general missionaryliterature (whether on its own account or as a publishing agency for

the mission boards) in addition to its large scheme for graded text

books for mission study. The Standing Committee was instructed

to keep in touch with the Interchurch World Movement of NorthAmerica—reports of which were presented by Mr. F. H. Hawkinsand the Rev. E. C. Lobenstine—in order to consider whether there

are any ways in which missionary societies in Great Britain andIreland can collaborate.

Work of Committees of the Conference: Missionary Liberty

The responsibilities of the Standing Committee in regard to therelations between missions and governments entered a new and morecritical stage when the Armistice was signed and steps were beguntowards a final settlement. After careful inquiry into the actual

situation, representations were made during the year to the properauthorities as to the place of missions in the political resettlementof Syria and Palestine, and as to safeguards for freedom of con-science and the carrying on of missionary work in any new interna-

tional agreements as to tropical Africa. In conjunction with Dr. J. R.Mott and Dr. Charles R. Watson, representing the Foreign MissionsConference of North America, a statement was submitted to theBritish and American delegations at the Peace Conference in Paris,urging that in all mandates for the administration of formerGerman and Turkish territories "(i) Freedom of conscience andreligion should be guaranteed to the followers of all religions, includ-ing expressly (a) the right to choose freely the form of religious

belief and to make a change of faith without incurring any political

or civil disability, and (b) liberty to exercise all forms of divineworship publicly as well as privately; (2) that Christian missionariesand other persons engaged in charitable and philanthropic effort

should not be hindered in the peaceable pursuit of their calling andshould be allowed to purchase and hold land and erect buildings forreligious and philanthropic purposes

; (3) that there should be nodiscrimination against missionary schools and that there should beequality of educational opportunity as between private and public

schools."Provision for German Missions

The Standing Committee has given careful and detailed attention

to the needs of missions formerly carried on by German societies.

In particular special and successful efforts have been made to ensurethat German mission property should be held in trust for missionarypurposes. The British Government having decided to exclude theBasel Mission from India, the Standing Committee guaranteed thesum of £1,000 to enable the National Missionary Council of Indiato take over the work in the South Mahratta area, and made repre-sentations which led the London Missionary Society and the

THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASE 17

United Free Church of Scotland jointly to guarantee a sum of £1,250for five years and enable the South India United Church to carry onthe work of the Basel Mission in the Malabar area.

Constitutional Reforms in India

An influential committee has been appointed to consider the effects

of the proposed constitutional reforms in India on missionary work,and especially on Christian education. This committee is in close

touch with the various missionary educational organizations in India.

Educational Commission to India

One of the outstanding events of the year has been the sendingof an Educational Commission to India to study the needs ofvillage education, more especially in mass movement areas. Thisenterprise has been undertaken in conjunction with missionary leadersin North America. The Commission has as British members theRev. A. G. Fraser, of Trinity College, Kandy, (Chairman), and MissM. M. Allan, Principal of Homerton College, Cambridge. TheAmerican member is Professor D. J. Fleming, D.D., Union Theo-logical Seminary, New York. Mr. K. T. Paul and probably anotherwill be the Indian members. Mr. Samuel Nasir and Mr. Olcott arealso of the party. The Commission left the United States, after acareful study of rural education there, in the end of July, travelingvia Japan and the Philippines to India. Plans are laid for un-hurried visits to many centers, and for conference with experiencedmissionaries, Indian workers, government educational officials andothers. The Report of the Commission will be written in India, sothat expert advice may be secured.

THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASE*The Continent of Europe—even more than America—is suffering

from a period of unreliable information. The world has been givennot facts, but what our Governments have felt it wise for us to

accept as facts. This has been true to a marked degree even in theneutral countries of Europe. At times there seems to have been adeliberate endeavor even in Christian circles to create a distrust ofthe Christian leaders of other lands. Moreover, the suspected un-trustworthiness of published statements has given rise to a decideduneasiness as to what the real status of missionary work is, or as towhat may be looked for in the future.The Continental leaders of missionary thought, together with some

British leaders and a few from America, fastened great hopes uponthe theory of the supernationality of missions. This thought seemedto be a natural concomitant of the idealism so strongly emphasized

*An article on the Continental Home Base by Dr. J. W. Gunning of Holland wasreceived too late for inclusion here. It has been inserted after the index.

18 THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASE

by America. The Peace Conference shattered the hopes of theseleaders ; in fact it took from the German Missionary Societies five-

sixths of their foreign work, and left them not the shadow of a hopethat this condition would be revoked.What more natural than that the leaders of the neutral countries

should therefore wonder as to whether or not the British, and par-ticularly the American leaders, had done all that could have beendone to urge action which would have preserved to the GermanSocieties the fruits of their Christian labors of years? Moreover,if it is an established principle that missionaries may have their workoverturned at the word of the controlling Government, whatassurance is there that a mission enterprise may be built up withany sense of permanency? If the missionaries must individually passin review before the governmental authorities, may not the missionsthemselves become the tools of scheming officials and cease to beindependent religious organizations standing fearlessly, even against"spiritual wickedness in high places"?The supernationalism of missions became a lost cause. This was

a rude shock to the once rapidly growing sense of internationalfellowship in world wide endeavor. In its place there arose doubt asto the future standing of the whole missionary enterprise. Notwith-standing this there has been a steady growth in missionary conviction.

Though definite data are not at hand there seems to have been everypromise of substantial increase in the incomes of the societies withheadquarters in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Holland.France has been so occupied with the intense task of living, that

her Protestant groups, at least, have not been disturbed by these con-siderations of international relationships. It was to be expected that

in this country there would be a falling off, both of interest and ofcontributions. The contrary has been true. The Paris Society, the

great Protestant Missionary Society of France, which is just begin-ning the one-hundredth year of her history, seems to have shown adevotion beyond anything she has before known. The receipts ofthe Society were greater than ever. Although the deficit also wasincreased, this was due to the responsibilities assumed in the care

of the former German Missions in French territory. From Franceone gets a clearly optimistic note, while from the countries to the

north, the spirit would seem to be rather that of determined persist-

ency in the face of an unsatisfactory future.

In Germany the spirit runs to the opposite extreme. The sting

of military defeat, the chagrin in the loss of the greater part of hermissions, the failure of the theory of supernationality of missions,

has engendered not suspicion alone but bitterness. This has not beenpalliated by the persistent though unsubstantiated report that GreatBritain has lifted the embargo on all Roman Catholic missionaries,

of whatever nationality. There has come a dire falling off of inter-

est, if one may judge by the appeals being made to the missionaryconstituency. There is even a distinct questioning as to whetherGerman missions within the next generation can be of any usewhatever in the world.

THE SOUTH AFRICAN HOME BASE 19

Having given up hope as to their missions in territory controlled

by Great Britain or France, they sadly turn to the contemplation of

the possible places for future expansion. The Dutch East Indies,

South America and China are the fields most frequently mentioned.

The larger number look to a building of their missionary future

in the Republic of China.The Basel Missionary Society, the great missionary organization

of Switzerland, met the same fate as did those in Germany itself.

This Society was supported alike by a constituency in Germany andin Switzerland—chiefly among the German-Swiss. Consequently, in

Switzerland, there is found much the same temper of mind as exists

in Germany. Since there was not the terrible depression, following

as an aftermath of war, there seems to be a more ready adjustmentto the new conditions and a greater cheerfulness in meeting thefuture of their missionary work.

THE SOUTH AFRICAN HOME BASERev. Amos Burnet

It would be useless to deny the fact that for a long time theEuropean Churches in South Africa did not do what might be ex-pected in the task of evangelising their heathen neighbours. Thereare many historical and sentimental reasons to account for this state

of things. The last generation had a very vivid recollection of all

the horrors of the great Kaffir Wars. Perhaps it was not surprising

that their attitude towards the native people was not alwayssympathetic and, indeed, not always Christian. The Dutch people ofthe Cape still remember the days when they held the natives in astate of slavery. They resented the abolition of slavery by the

British Government, and this to a large extent affected their atti-

tude towards missionaries and mission work. One is glad, however,to be able to say that there are signs on every hand of a very greatimprovement in the growth of a very real and influential missionaryspirit. The Dutch Reformed Church, which, in numbers and influ-

ence, stands at the head of all the churches, has lately developed avery praiseworthy and extensive missionary work. This work is

carried on not only in South Africa itself, but also in Nyasaland,where excellent results have been achieved. The WesleyanMethodist Church, which, in numbers of adherents and members,comes next to the Dutch Church, has a Missionary Society of its

own. The income last year was about ii4,ooo. About half of this

amount was given by European Churches and the rest by native andcoloured congregations. There is a very real missionary spirit in

many English Congregations, and many of the native members areexceedingly zealous in spreading the gospel amongst their owncountrymen. Other Churches, especially the Anglican and manysmaller bodies, have done work which deserves honourable mention.The change in the attitude of European people in South Africa

towards missionary work has been very great during the last twenty-

five years, and there seems to be a growing sense of responsibility

for the condition of the heathen peoples. The position of thecountry is quite unique. Great masses of heathen people are foundhere and there and English communities are interspersed. It

follows that many Europeans see the most repulsive side of nativelife, and unless they themselves are convinced Christians they arenot likely to be enthusiastic in regard to missionary work. Still

the change has been so marked and so general that many of thebest people in the country, led by officials such as Lord Selborneand others, have spoken out so strongly as to the duty of theEuropean people who dominate South Africa, that we may fairly

expect a very happy increase in the missionary spirit and a veryrapid growth in missionary work. In connection with all thechurches there have been cases of Europeans born in South Africagiving themselves to missionary labor and their example has notbeen without a very wonderful effect. The Dutch Churches drawall their workers from local sources, and this is a state of thingswhich other bodies might very well emulate.

THE AUSTRALASIAN HOME BASEThe Missionary Societies of Australia and New Zealand have

given especial attention to work among the Aborigines of Austral-asia and among the people of the Islands of the Southern Pacific.

In large measure they have inherited the work of European Soci-

eties. Little by little, as they have grown in strength, they haveassumed added responsibility. At the present time nearly all their

work is independently conducted. Several of the Boards have workin India. A few of their missionaries are to be found, also, in

China, Japan and Korea. The Bolivian Indian Mission had its

beginning in New Zealand, and the Sudan United Mission has acouncil with headquarters at Melbourne.Before the war the income of these societies was about three

quarters of a million dollars. During the war there was a decidedincrease. In 1919 the rate of increase apparently was not kept up,

and there was fear of a slight decline for the year. This uncertainty

is laid, not so much to a decline in interest in the Missionary enter-

prise, as to a condition due to the epidemic of unrest everywhereprevailing.

Notwithstanding this note of uncertainty there was a general call

for advance, and several writers wrote hopefully of the prospect ofa good increase in the incomes.

All societies seem to be facing a most urgent need of candidates.

Here, again, there is a spirit of confidence in looking to the future.

The return of the troops from Europe, the augmented enrollment in

schools, and the general spirit of progress all buttress the conviction

that within two or three years the young men and young women will

offer themselves in numbers entirely adequate to meet the demandsof the Missionary Societies.

FIELD REVIEWS

LATIN AMERICARev. Samuel Guy Inman

Growing Interest in Latin America

With the signing of peace the attention of the economic world is

shifting from Europe to Latin America. Food, room for over-crowded populations, and a market for surplus goods and capital

are the great quests of the world, which will compel the wooing ofthese twenty great, rich, undeveloped nations to the South.

The "Continent of Opportunity"

Beginning at the Rio Grande and stretching down through Mexico,Central America, across Panama, over Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil,

Peru, and the abounding plains of Argentina to the Straits ofMagellan is the largest stretch of undeveloped fertile land in theentire world. All the population of the world could find place hereand be only one-third as crowded as is Porto Rico. Argentina, far

more capable than New York of sustaining a dense population, wouldhave two hundred and twenty million people instead of eight million,

if it were as densely populated as that State. Little Cuba has moreforeign commerce than China. This is why capitalists, manufactur-ers, steamship directors, food economists, and political leaders in

Europe, North America and even Japan are so intently fixing their

attention on these fallow lands. A great part of our newly built

merchant marine is being assigned to Latin America.

The Need of Mission WorkThis forward position which Latin America is coming to occupy in

human affairs forces upon the Christian agencies of the world acondition which must be met quickly and adequately if religion is to

exert the supreme influence in the further development and solidifica-

tion of these relationships.

24 LATIN AMERICA

For centuries these countries have been in the main exploited byoutsiders ; made to yield of their riches to benefit people other thantheir own._ Marked by motives of self-interest and unfair dealing,

materialistic forces from without have made paramount issues thepossession of such things as gold and silver mines, oil lands, rubberforests and sugar plantations. Imbued from within with a spirit

peculiar to themselves and living until recently in semi-isolation,

misunderstood and misunderstanding alike, they have been suspiciousand distrustful of each other and fearful of us. Experience withRoman Catholicism has caused untold numbers of the intelligent andeducated classes to discard religion, disavow allegiance to the Churchand become open skeptics, agnostics and free thinkers. Millionsmore have never even heard the Gospel and are still bound up in

their old superstitions and practice.

If Christian forces fail to take advantage of the present situation

it will mean that materialism will triumph and the radiating influ-

ences of spirituality will have no part in shaping the interactions ofLatin American future civilization and growth.

The Land and the People

Latin America, popularly so called, is composed of the twentyrepublics south of the Rio Grande River: Mexico; Guatemala,Honduras, Salvador, Costa Rica and Panama in Central America;Cuba, Haiti and Santo Domingo in the West Indies ; and the coun-tries of Venezuela, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina,Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia in South America. These com-bined countries have an area of 8,321,081 square miles and apopulation of 80,000,000 roughly divided as follows : Whites,18,000,000; Indians, 17,000,000; Negroes, 6,000,000; Mixed White andIndian, 30,000,000; Mixed White and Negro, 8,000,000; MixedNegro and Indian, 700,000; East Indian, Japanese and Chinese,

300,000.

The Language and Its Literature

Eighteen of the twenty republics of Latin America are predom-inately Spanish speaking. Haiti uses French and the 24,000,000Brazilians, with the exception of their few hundred thousand un-

civilized Indians, speak Portuguese. There are about 10,000,000

Indians who can only be reached by their own tribal languages, ofwhich there are a number of varieties. As some of these have notyet been reduced to writing the situation is a difficult one, requiring

vigorous treatment if conditions among these people are not to drift

along as they have ever since the white man came.The Latin languages, of course, present no serious barriers to

interchange of ideas and experience, but it is a lamentable fact that

in the Spanish and Portuguese there is practically no Christian

literature. For centuries the people have been taught that the Bible

is a dangerous book, not to be owned or read except under priestly

guidance. The Roman Catholic Church even today does not stimu-late good reading and produces but little good literature.

Races and Social Groups

A social grouping of the people may place them in three classes

:

the Indians, the peons, and the aristocratic or landed class.

Although there have been some Indians who have risen to promi-nence and some tribes which are noted for the high degree of their

civilization before they were subdued by the Latin invaders, mostof them are today in a primitive state, ignorant, and almost whollyneglected by social and religious forces. They are absolutely with-out knowledge of the laws of health and live in unsanitary conditionswhich cause a high death rate.

The peons, although the class above the Indians, cannot be con-sidered the "middle class" such as exists in the United States andEurope, as they, too, are ignorant and live in squalor. They aregenerally oppressed by the upper classes ; work for small wages, in

some cases barely enough to exist upon ; are too poor to own prop-erty and are usually in debt. This, if they are unable to meet it, is

made a charge upon their families and their children are forced to

inherit it.

The third class includes the wealthy people, the professional men—lawyers, engineers, physicians, journalists, etc., those whose tastes

and interests ally them with the upper classes, rather than with thepeople beneath them. The rich, of course, control everything, live

Religious Conditions

Roman Catholicism of the type which flourished in the middle ageshas been the dominant religion. Since it has opposed all progressand all democratic movements it has largely failed. The thinkingpeople of the nations, especially the young people, the students, aredissatisfied with it, realizing that it provides no way by which theymay be Christians and yet true to the laws of the mind, and to theaccepted forms of modern knowledge with which their best institu-

tions are abreast. In practically every one of the large cities theeducated classes either have turned in violent opposition to theChurch of their fathers, or have grown so indifferent to it that it

has no influence upon their lives. You speak to men who are leaders

in philanthropic and educational enterprises about religion and theywill say: "What! Religion? That is the thing above all things for

which we have no use. Religion has been the cause of our revolu-tions ; religion has opposed our progress ; on account of religion

from fifty to eighty per cent of our people are unable to read orwrite. In the name of progress deliver us from religion!" A uni-versity professor lecturing on the "Conception of God" in one ofthe leading schools in Brazil, said:

"The Catholic faith is dead. There is no longer confidence in

Christian dogma. The supernatural has been banished from thedomain of science. The conquests of philosophy have done awaywith the old conception of spirituality. Astronomy, with Laplace,has invaded the heavenly fields and in all celestial space there hasnot been found a kingdom of God. . . . We are in the realm ofrealism. The reason meditates not on theological principles, butupon facts furnished by experience. God is a myth, he has noreality, he is not an object of science. . . . Man invented gods andGod that the world might be ruled. These conceptions resulted fromhis progressive intelligence. The simple spirit refrains from all

criticism and accepts the idea of God without resistance. The

cultured spirit repels the idea in virtue of its inherent contradic-

tions."

Any strength which Christianity possesses among the well informedseldom comes from a sense of personal allegiance through faith in

God and the saving Christ, but is, rather, based upon political ex-pediency, class interest and inherited religious sentiment. Thegreat mass of womankind, whose educational opportunities havebeen prescribed, are still loyal to the Church and Roman Catholicismremains the axis on which turns the elite social order in most of the

countries.

Indifference to Religion

Recent investigations, however, have been startling in their revela-

tion of the way the working classes are abandoning the Church anddrifting into extreme socialism and an antagonism to all forms ofreligion.

In Mexico the revolution has brought about a widespread propa-ganda in favor of anti-Christian socialism, the result of which is

seen in the new constitution, which contains the most drastic restric-

tions on religious activities ever written into a state document. InCuba, a recent book, which attacks Christianity, known as "LaReligion al Alcance de Todos" ("Religion in the Reach of All"), hasreached a circulation of 50,000 copies. It is said that agnosticism is

found even among field laborers. In Chile there are continued labordisturbances, and a growing opposition of the working classes to

the ruling classes and to the Church which many believe must endin a bloody revolution. In Argentina anarchists are very active

among the workmen. The Roman Church is so concerned about this

movement that their priests are addressing meetings of workmen onthe street corners. In Brazil there have been strikes and food riots

in almost all parts of the country. In a strike at Sao Paulo, onethousand rioters were killed.

Limited Evangelical WorkIf one visits only the capital and port cities of Latin America, he

will be impressed with the smallness of the evangelical work, butwhen he visits the smaller cities and towns he will be appalled at thelack of strength. In Mexico there are states with as many as a

million population where no foreign missionary works. There areonly two hundred ordained ministers, both foreign and native, topreach the gospel to fifteen million people—a parish for each of 75,000souls. Yet a representative of the Guggenheim interests said beforethe revolution that practically a million Mexicans, one out of fifteen

of the population, were dependent on that and allied corporations.To help Mexico teach the eighty per cent illiterate in her popula-tion, there are altogether one hundred and seventy-seven missionschools. American capital has invested a billion dollars in Mexico.We have invested for missionary purposes little more than a five

hundredth part of that amount. Panama is the center of one of themost backward parts of the globe.

_In two of the five republics of

Central America there is no organized Mission Board doing work.Our missions support four schools and one hospital in all of CentralAmerica. In little Panama, which owes its very existence to theUnited States, there is only one missionary preaching the simplegospel of Jesus to three hundred and fifty thousand Spanish-speak-ing Panamanians. There are eight ordained missionaries in theRepublic of Venezuela, trying to serve a population of nearly threemillion. To educate the eighty-five per cent of her population whocannot read and write, there are two little primary schools with asmall enrollment. In the whole history of this Republic only onebuilding has ever been erected for school purposes either by Churchor State, and that was a military academy. In Colombia, which is

larger than Germany, France, Spain and Italy, there are only twoordained Protestant ministers to every million of the population.

In Ecuador there is practically no established mission work, and noProtestant church building has ever been erected in that country.

In the northern half of Peru, a stretch of territory larger than ouroriginal thirteen states, there is not one evangelical missionary.There are ten provinces in this historic Republic, all larger thanHolland, where there is no evangelical work. In Bolivia the

Evangelical Church has only one hundred members. Great areas in

Chile and Argentina are still untouched by evangelical missionaries,

and only the fringes along the ocean and river fronts of Uruguayand Brazil are occupied. One missionary couple has recently beensent to Paraguay as the first step toward facing the great problemthat country presents. The greatest stretch of unevangelized terri-

two or three missionaries. In Northern Brazil there are sevenstates, with populations ranging from that of Maine to that of NewJersey, with no foreign missionary.

Among the Indians

Large numbers of the native Indians and negro ex-slave descend-ants in given sections of Latin America are pagan, in some areas

without any contact whatever with Christianity, and in many others

with too little to affect appreciably either their religious conceptions,

their character or their low economic state. They constitute a field

of pure missionary endeavor as apostolically conceived, which nobody of Christians can ignore who accept responsibility for the

world's evangelization. There are 3,500,000 Indians on the plateaus

of Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia, including the former Inca Empire.Practically nothing is being done for them. Going down into the

valley of,the Amazon and through the lowlands of Bolivia and Para-guay, there are many other millions of Indians—no one knows howmany—who still live in their savage state, with no efforts madefor them except those of the splendid little band of missionaries ofthe South American Missionary Society.

There are some three million Indians living the tribal life in

Mexico and two million more in Central America. No Americanmissionary society is conducting any comprehensive work for anyof these tribes. It is one of the most imperative problems beforethe American Church.

Strategic Centers for Missionary WorkFor South America the following six centers are suggested for

strategic stations from which the work could spread: (1) CentralPeru; (2) Highlands of Bolivia; (3) Matto Grosso, interiorBragil; (4) on the Rio Negro, Brazil; (5) on the eastern slope ofthe Andes, Colombia

; (6) Upper Orinoco, in Venezuela.

tween Latin Catholics and Anglo-Saxon Protestants, and haveminimized the great economic moral bases of American solidarity.

They had ceased to regard religion as a real factor in a modern life

as they were developing it. But this world war, with its rude shockto their economic progress and to many of their philosophic theories,

supposedly beyond attack, has compelled them to re-examine their

individual and national relationships and to restate their theories.

This spirit of inquiry impresses one profoundly as he talks withmen of every status from university professors to laboring men.One of the evidences of this openmindedness and interest in spir-

itual things is found in the magnificent welcome given to the NorthAmerican fleet when visiting Montevideo. The Dean of the literati

of Uruguay, Dr. Juan Zorilla de San Martin, said, in speaking to

the boys : "We love the United States as a great collectivity ; we loveyou as citizens of the United States, but we want you to understandthat we love you as individuals. We talk of our common mother

democracy; there is some one else still dearer to us—our commonFather." Then, leaving the interpreter, he repeated in a charmingbroken English the Lord's Prayer. It is worth while to note that

Dr. Zorilla is one of the leaders of the Catholic party in Uruguay.Such a man speaking such sentiments on the platform of the YoungMen's Christian Association is significant of a new day in SouthAmerica.

Growing Friendship with the United States

In the past Latin America has been ruled by Latin sentiment; herpeople have considered themselves apart from Anglo-Saxons andopposed to their philosophy of life. They have held it to be un-patriotic to adopt the religion or* any other features of North Ameri-can life. This attitude is surely, though slowly, undergoing a change.North America's sacrifice of her profits on munitions with herunselfish entrance into the World War as a crusade for Democracyhas given the Latins a real appreciation of her idealism and a desire

for her friendship. 'American Solidarity" has come to be the mostpopular phrase in Latin America. The establishment of NorthAmerican banks, steamship lines and many new commercial houseshas added much to these closer relations. Trade between the UnitedStates and Latin America has increased more than a billion dollars

in the last four years.

Latin American Students in Our Country

ship. At the Student Conferences in Northfield and Lake Genevathere were enthusiastic groups of these students earnestly seeking

to solve their spiritual problems. The Brazilian government has

recently sent to this country twenty-seven graduate students who are

to take -two year courses in agriculture, forestry, sanitation, andengineering, to return to their country with these North Americanmethods to help develop the marvelous physical resources of their

country. The missionary forces have impressed Brazil to such an

extent that missionary leaders in this country were requested to meetthe students and advise them concerning the institutions they should

attend and help them in other ways to get the most out of their stay

in this country.

Northern Leadership in Latin American Education

Many national leaders are turning to North American missionary

forces to direct either new institutions or old ones, which, while well

equipped, have failed because of lack of unselfish, devoted service

on the part of the directors. Often there is frank acknowledgmentthat they have not the altruistic prepared leadership which they

realize can be found only among North American Evangelical Chris-

tians.

The new day is well expressed by a word, just received from aleading missionary of South America, who has an open door in

practically every University of South America."With the present spiritual unrest that signifies a deep longing

for something morally and spiritually better and with the UnitedStates standing today beside France in the affections of the SouthAmerican peoples, one longs to see every North American agencythat can make a genuine contribution to the moral and spiritual

progress of South America give itself wholeheartedly to this oppor-tunity for Christian effort in South America. No such time hasexisted since the days following the gaining of their political

independence."

committee in all Latin America. With the exception of Porto Rico,there was no definite delimitation of territory. There was noco-operative committee of the Boards to consider its needs. Thehome Church was ignorant of and indifferent to its claims. Northand Latin America had few commercial relations and political rela-

tions were very unsatisfactory. Little intercourse was had betweenintellectual leaders of the two Americas. Few visitors from either

people were found among the other.

The Committee on Cooperation in Latin America

Today all is different. The Committee on Cooperation in LatinAmerica, appointed by the thirty mission boards doing work in thoselands, held the Panama Congress at which there were representativesfrom more than fifty different organizations interested in the spir-

itual life of Latin America. Seven Regional Conferences in theimportant centers of Latin America immediately following Panamaaided in outlining a comprehensive program for the whole field.

Combined Christian forces found in these twenty nations a peopleunited by a similar language, history, government, social structureand ideals, making possible a joint program for this continent and ahalf. This program, which in its comprehensiveness and practica-

bility is astounding to those who have not followed it -step by step,

has been developed by the Committee on Cooperation in LatinAmerica.

Accomplishments in Cooperation

The outstanding accomplishments for cooperation during the yearof 1919 have been

:

1. The consummation of the proposals of the Cincinnati Confer-ence concerning Mexico and the development of a most inclusive

cooperative program for Mexico, outlined in detail under the head-ing, Mexico.

2. The Surveying of the virgin mission fields of Hayti and SantoDomingo and the development of a union plan for occupying that

field.

3. The beginning of a monthly review, "La Nueva Democracia,"which will circulate in all parts of Latin America.

4. Cooperation with the Interchurch World Movement, makingthe surveys in Latin America for them, and drawing up for them a

five year program, budgeted in terms of men and money for eachLatin American country.

5. Arranging for a Regional Conference in Central America forthe spring of 1920.

6. Employment of a Secretary of Literature for Brazil, a Secre-tary for Education in Mexico and a Secretary for the Committee onCooperation in Mexico.

Political Situation

The outstanding event of the year was the awakening of public

opinion against the regime of the military governors, especially their

subservience to Japan. These military governors or tuchuns, as they

are called, are quite independent of the central authority. In the

northern part of China they have formed a coalition and are back-ing up the Parliament and government in Peking. In the souththey have a loose organization with its center at Canton. Duringthe early part of 1918 these two governments were at war with eachother. Japan was supplying money to both sides and was not deal-

ing with them as governments, but with specially selected individuals.

After the signing of the armistice in Europe Japanese loans for warpurposes ceased and the tuchuns appointed an internal peace con-ference which met in Shanghai. This worried along, hampered bythe military governors, and finally the members resigned. Thereare now plans to resume the peace conference. There is no doubtthat this will be done and peace made in the near future.

China and the Peace Conference

The meeting of the Peace Conference in Paris aroused high hopesin China. The delegates representing China were strong men andon the whole did their work well. When it became evident that

China. Republic. Area (including Mongolia and Tibet), 3,913,560 squaremiles. Population (Mr. Rockhill's estimate), 329,617,750. The prevailingreligions are Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. "Probably all Chinese (notMohammedans or Christians) profess and practice all three religions." Thereis no state religion, but Confucianism is the basis of the ethical teaching in thegovernment schools. There are between 5,000,000 and 10,000,000 Mohamme-dans (Mr. Marshall Bromhall's estimate), 1,956,205 Roman Catholics, 654,658Protestants and 5,500 Russian Orthodox Catholics. In the south of China area considerable number of aboriginal tribes who are Animists.

34 CHINA

German interests in Shantung were to be transferred to Japan themerchants and students of China and Chinese all over the world senturgent telegrams to Paris advising the delegates not to sign thetreaty without reservations on Shantung. The delegates finding it

impossible to make reservations or obtain any written agreementfrom Japan as to the return of Kiaochau refused to sign thetreaty.

When the failure of China at Paris became known the studentsand merchants organized a nation-wide strike, and inaugurated aboycott of Japanese goods. They compelled the three men mostresponsible for putting China under the power of Japan to resign.

The strike was so effective that the military governors were com-pelled to sit up and take notice because this national spirit was pene-trating their retainers so that Japanese borrowed money could nolonger hold them. The boycott has been successful. Those whoknow the situation intimately state that Japanese trade was cutfifty to seventy per cent. The serious part is not the stoppage oftrade, but the earnest efforts to produce goods in China formerlyimported from Japan.

Awakening of the National Spirit

The most pressing problem before the government of China is

the disbandment of the soldiers and the dispossession of the military

governors from their position of power in various sections of thecountry. More than fifty per cent of the revenues of the country,are being used for military purposes. Last year the deficit was twohundred million dollars.

On all sides the awakening of the national spirit is regarded as amost hopeful factor in the whole situation. The movement wasnation-wide, orderly, well organized and very efficient. If rightly

used it will result ultimately in the relegating of the military gov-ernors to their proper place and establishing the power of the civil

population.

The International Consortium

The formation of the International Consortium to finance Chinais a sign of progress. It is hoped that the operation of this bodywill tend to obliterate the spheres of influence, bring about the inter-

nationalization of China's railways and put the country on a soundfinancial basis.

Industrial Progress

Industry is progressing. Chinese raise now two and a half

million bales of cotton. They have in operation over a million

and a half spindles and five thousand power looms besides tens ofthousands of hand looms in the villages. The government dockyardat Shanghai is building four ten thousand ton boats for the UnitedStates. The silk industry is being revived and efforts are being

made to resuscitate the tea trade.

CHINA 35

Foreign Trade

The foreign trade of China reached its highest record in 1918,

amounting to $1,241,645,003 in U. S. currency. This record was at-

tained in spite of internal disorganization and the high silver ex-

change. The U. S. dollar has dropped to $.86 Mex. A fewyears ago it exchanged for $2.50 Mex. Of this trade more than two-fifths was with Japan. The United States holds second place with

12.96 per cent to its credit.

Education

The statistics of government education for 1915-1916, the latest

available, reveal some advance in education. In this year there

were 4,294,251 students in schools of all grades as compared with

2,933,387 in 1912-1913. Not only in numbers, but in scope and effi-

ciency some progress has been made. Vocational and physical edu-cation has been promoted. Popular education has been extended bymeans of libraries, lecture halls and public reading rooms. Teachertraining has been emphasized. The Boy Scout movement is taking

root in the schools. The use of Phonetic Script is spreading. NearPeking over 100,000 have learned to use the new Script. Just re-

cently the governor of Shansi ordered two million and a half

primers for teaching this Script. The frequent educational missionsto foreign lands reveal the desire of the government for improve-ment. The ending of civil war and retrenchment of military ex-penditure should stimulate educational progress.

Opium Reform

In January the government purchased the remaining stocks ofopium from the Opium Combine for twenty-four million dollars

Mex. currency and consigned it to the flames. The InternationalAnti-opium Association was organized with branches in different

parts of the country. It has prevailed upon the Paris Peace Confer-ence to adopt the Hague opium convention.

Social Ferment

On all sides there are evidences of social ferment. The cities areimproving their roads and installing electric lighting plants. Overeighty cities are now lighted by electricity. They are adoptingmeasures which will gradually improve the sanitary conditions. Anew literary movement on the part of the younger men is attractingattention. It favors the use of the vernacular in literature. Themen of wealth are promoting education for boys and girls, establish-ing trade schools and enterprises for social amelioration. Thissocial awakening is bound to make itself felt in the political life ofthe nation.

Missionary Work—ExpansionThe missions have been looking toward the regions beyond.

During the war the missions from the neutral countries, Norway,

36 CHINA

Sweden, and Denmark have been increasing their staffs and enlarg-ing their work. Tibet is opening up to missionary activity. TheC. I. M. and the Foreign Christian Missionary Society have begunwork in this long closed country. The Tibetan Tract Society wasestablished and printed and circulated 50,000 tracts among Tibetans.The Presbyterians are opening work among the Tai races in Yunnan.The Christian and Missionary Alliance has been extending its workin French Indo-China. The Salvation Army has occupied severalcities in North China. Its paper, the War Cry, has reached acirculation of over six thousand copies all paid. The AmericanBoard has set off Shaowu, formerly a station of the Foochowmission in western Fukien, as a mission. The Methodist EpiscopalChurch is on the eve of a great forward movement in evangelisticand educational work. China is ready for the Interchurch WorldMovement. The Chinese merchants of Singapore recently promisedabout a million dollars for a college in response to the MethodistCentenary.

Mission Universities and Medical Schools

During the year two union Universities have completed their

organization. Peking University elected Rev. J. Leighton Stuart,

D.D., as its first president. The Fukien Christian University elected

Professor Edwin C. Jones, M.A., as its first president. The latter

institution also conferred the degree of B.A. on five graduatesunder its charter from the Regents of the University of the State

of New York. The Christian Educational Association has outlined

a large policy in teacher training and vocational education. Thesurvey of Christian education is progressing. The total number ofstudents in Christian schools reported for the year 1917 was 194,624.

The China Medical Board is completing the buildings of the MedicalSchool at Peking. The first class was admitted this fall. TheBoard is considering plans for a medical school at Shanghai. It is

supporting premedical departments in St. John's University at

Shanghai and in the Fukien Christian University.

Facing the Cities

The Protestant forces in the large cities have been getting togetherand facing the problems of the city as a unit. At Nanking theyhave formed a Provisional Church Council uniting the work ofeleven different missions. They plan a headquarters, a survey of the

city, a definite evangelistic program and the organization ofChinese laymen for civic reform. Similar cooperation is takingplace at Canton, Tientsin, Foochow, Hangchow, and other large

cities.

Church Union

The Lutheran churches have made progress toward organic union.

Several of the home Boards ha^ve assented to the proposed consti-

tution adopted by the General Conference, Kikungshan, in 1917. Thevarious committees on the field on organization, ritual, and the

CHINA 37

hymn book, will finish their work before 1920 and it is hoped that

the second General Lutheran Conference will be held then.

The preliminary work to establish a union Lutheran college in

central China has been completed and proposals have been made for

the founding of a Lutheran University at Hankow.The Lutheran paper published at Hankow which has been circu-

lating among the Lutheran constituency for the last five years hasbeen made into a weekly.

In South Fukien the Presbyterian Synod and the CongregationalProvincial Council have adopted a plan for the union of the twobodies. There is now in South Fukien, barring the Seventh-DayAdventists, one union church, indigenous, self-administering andpractically self-supporting.

The representatives of the Presbyterian churches, the churchesestablished by the London Missionary Society and the AmericanBoard met at Nanking in January and adopted a plan which will

eventuate in the organic union of these churches. A preliminarydoctrinal basis has been adopted. The Presbyterian Synods and the

Congregational churches all over China are giving their heartyapproval to the union. The union has also been approved by theUnited Brethren and the English Baptists. The spirit of union is

in the air and several denominations are carefully considering their

attitude toward the whole movement. The broad evangelical basis,

the local church autonomy and the possibility of local and nationalcooperation make the plan flexible and practical and commend it to

many denominations who are realizing the need of a united witnessfor Christ in China.

The Survey of the Continuation Committee

The survey of Christian work by this committee has made sub-stantial progress and plans are being made for a conference ofleaders in 1920 to consider the findings of this survey.The Christian Literature Council has been organized and is making

plans for the promotion of the production and distribution ofChristian literature in China.The Committee on Work among Moslems of China has appointed

Rev. C. L. Ogilvie as secretary. The Committee has published abook of Moslem terms and the Gospel of Matthew and a Primerprepared by Dr. Zwemer.

Social Application of the Gospel

The emphasis on the social application of the gospel is growing.The churches are realizing that they must do something toward thetransformation of the environment in which they live. At the sametime there is a deepening conviction that it is not sufficient to changethe mechanism of society. The ideals, values, the motives must beenlarged and the spiritual life of the individual and society must berecreated by the living gospel of Christ.

38 CHOSEN

Missions Building

The site of the Missions Building at Shanghai has been purchasedand plans are being drawn for the building. This building will serveas headquarters for the Christian agencies serving all China center-ing at Shanghai. It will promote cooperation in the evangelizationof China.

Union Version of the Bible

The year has been marked by the publication of the union versionof the Bible in Mandarin and one in Wenli, the classical language,authorized by the General Missionary Conference of 1890. Dr.Chauncey Goodrich has the honor of seeing the completed workbegun twenty-nine years ago. The versions have the approval ofChinese scholars for their fidelity to the original and felicity ofstyle. A concordance based on the new versions is being published.

The Yunnan Mission

The company of men and women sent by the Chinese churches to

Yunnan reached the province and was received enthusiastically bythe Christians, the missionaries and the officials. They are investi-

gating conditions with a view to starting home missionary worksupported by the churches of China. The "Gospel Bell," anoccasional bulletin in English and Chinese, is keeping the movementbefore the public.

The Outlook

The religious situation is full of promise. The leading membersof the middle class are turning toward Christianity and are finding

it a source of strength for their emerging personality and a broadfoundation for the new social life. The incoming of this class is

revolutionizing missionary work. There is a growing national

consciousness. There is a deepening sense on the part of the churchleaders that the church has a mission to serve the nation and bear a

united witness for Christ.

A Year of Disturbance

All Christian missionary work in Chosen during 1919 was pro-foundly affected by political disturbances. Reports and letters

written before the first of March had little reference to the condi-tions which came to a head that day. It would seem that the nativeChristians, wishing to not involve the foreign missionaries, wentahead with their plans without confiding in the missionaries. The

Chosen. An integral part of the Japanese Empire. Area (estimated).84,000 square miles. Population (census of 1915), 16,278,389. Of these,about 12,000,000 are Confucianists and Ancestor-worshippers, 3,000,000 areBuddhists, and 800,000 Animists (estimated only). There were (1917),219,000 Protestants and 87,000 Roman Catholics.

CHOSEN 39

storm broke on the first of March and for the next six weeks terror

reigned.

Causes of the Uprising

Following a series of preliminary steps, as a result of which herhold was more and more strengthened, Japan practically annexedChosen in August, 1910. There is no question that the land has beenbenefited and all of the people have been greatly helped underJapanese rule. There is hardly one item that enters into the physical

welfare of the people in which there has not been very commendableprogress. The Koreans claim, however, not without some degreeof right, that moral conditions have greatly deteriorated since the

advent of the Japanese. There is no denying that Japan has beenalmost ruthless in her treatment of the people of Chosen. Possiblyit has been necessary to rule with a firm hand. Japan's military

system, as it worked itself out in Chosen, brought suffering andwretchedness to the people, and called forth expressions of indigna-

tion from the whole civilized world. There is no space in this brief

review to give a bill of particulars, but the facts are on record andadmitted even by fair-minded Japanese.

Manifesto of Independence

A proclamation of independence in behalf of the people of Chosenwas signed and issued on March 1, 1919, by thirty-three persons,fifteen of whom were members of the native cult Chundo Kyo,

the Heavenly Way Association,—fifteen Christians and three Bud-dhists. The movement had been so secretly organized that even thesecret police of the government did not know what was going to

happen. In a very few days it spread to all parts of the land andpolice, gendarmes and soldiers were called out to disperse the crowdsand arrest the leaders. During the first few days no very roughmethods were used, but gradually more and more brutal methodswere employed. Official records show that at least five hundredKoreans were killed and several thousand wounded, and it is likely

that the number was very much larger. Scores of churches wereburned and more than half of all of the Korean pastors were throwninto prison. The Church is strongest along the Manchurian borderprovinces, and there are some thousands of Korean Christians living

across the border in Manchuria. Very many of the churches ofthese latter were also destroyed.

Intent of the Japanese

It is only natural that the Japanese should look upon the ChristianChurch in Korea with somewhat of suspicion and even with fear. TheChristians have been leaders among the people. The growing powerof any organization would attract the most careful scrutiny of thegovernment. The native Church took no part in the movement forindependence, but the pastors and many of the Christians did soas individuals. Eight years ago at the time of the "conspiracy" case,

40 CHOSEN

when native Christians were tortured and imprisoned, the Japaneseseemed bent upon total extermination of the Christian Church. Thedevelopments of the last few years and the treatment of the Chris-tians in these last few months indicate that the Japanese fear thegrowth of the Christian Church in Chosen and would be very gladto uproot it altogether.

Result and Present Status

The "revolution" has been conducted without resorting to the useof arms, the method being that of passive resistance. The onlything accomplished has been in whatever impression may have beenmade upon the Japanese and the outside world.The Japanese Government was subjected to great pressure from

the people of Japan and other nations. Christians in America joinedin the protests against Japanese rule in Chosen. In August AdmiralM. Saito succeeded General Hasegawa as the Resident General. Mr.Saito was appointed to conduct a civil and not a military administra-tion. Control of the soldiers and all authority for using them wastaken from him. He has begun his administration in a very com-mendable manner. He has received callers in civilian dress andgives assurance that he intends to help the people of Chosen in everypossible way.

Effect on Missionary WorkChristian work has gone on despite the interruption. Of course

it has not been possible to hold the regular services of worship, norto conduct schools in the same way as before. Native pastors havebeen away from their flocks. Yet with it all the Christians havemanifested a wonderful spirit in their suffering and in their martyr-dom. They have shown themselves worthy of their Master. Theyare more highly respected than ever before and many now look uponChristianity as their only hope, if not in this world at least in the

world that is to come.Bible Study

The people of Korea have been devoted students of the Bible,

but there is now a greater desire than ever before to hear and studythe Word of God. They travel long distances to attend a BibleInstitute and after spending several days together in study andprayer go away strengthened and more determined than ever to

lead others to Christ.

Sunday-school work too is progressing. At first the Sunday-schoolwas for the adult Christians and their children. Now the so-called

"ragged Sunday-schools" are being organized and a much larger

number of children is being reached.

Self-support and Expansion

The church in Chosen was begun on the principle of self-support.

These native Christians out of their poverty have supported the workto a degree that is almost incredible. They are carrying on home

FRENCH INDO-CHINO 41

missionary work on a large scale and have sent out several foreign

missionaries.Christian Work among the Japanese

The dearth of workers has left without pastors nearly one-third

of the churches and preaching places where work is carried onamong the Japanese. In spite of this fact there has been steady

growth, several new stations have been opened and additional work-ers, Japanese and Americans, have been assigned to the work amongthe Japanese in Chosen.

FRENCH INDO-CHINARev. Lewis Hodous, D.D.

French Indo-China is one of the largest single countries as yetpractically untouched by Protestant missions. The country is

divided into protectorates and possessions. The protectorates con-sist of the vassal kingdoms of Annam, Cambodia, Tong-King andLaos. They are governed technically by the treaties made withFrance and according to these treaties only the Roman Catholicshave freedom to promulgate their religion. The possessions consist

of the cities of Hamoi, Haiphong, Tourane and the colony ofCochin-China. The colony is represented in Parliament by onedeputy. These are governed by the laws of Paris which allow theProtestants to preach their religion.

Occupation

The Christian and Missionary Alliance has three main stations:Tourane, in Annam, opened seven years ago ; Hanoi, the capital ofTong-King, opened three years ago ; Saigon, in Cochin-China, openedin 1918. There are two out-stations, Haiphong, the sea-port ofHanoi, and Haichow, a village near Tourane. The Mission ownsproperty at Tourane. Last year property was purchased in Hanoiand the first building erected. This gives a sense of security andpermanency to the work.At present this society has ten missionaries with three more under

appointment to go forth this fall. The Rev. R. A. Jafrray, of Wuchowin the province of Kwangsi, is acting Superintendent, making two orthree trips a year. The membership at present numbers ninety.

Most of these belong to the oldest church at Tourane, which hasrecently become self-supporting.

In Laos, which has become a part of French Indo-China, there are

French Indo-China (not including Kivang-Chau-Wan). Consists of onecolony and four protectorates; total area, about 256,000 square miles, popula-tion (1914), 16,722,229.

three workers of the Swiss Plymouth Brethren. They have twostations and about thirty-nine members.

Bible Translation

The British and Foreign Bible Society has helped in the publishingand the distribution of Scriptures. The four Gospels, the Acts andthe Epistle to the Romans in Annamese are now ready. ThePlymouth Brethren have completed the translation of the New Testa-ment into the language of the Laos.

Outlook

_The missionaries on the field are hoping that necessary permis-

sion from Paris or from local officials will be obtained to enter theother parts of the country from which they are now restricted. Inview of this hope the missionaries of the Christian and MissionaryAlliance are asking for six new missionaries a year so that at least

three new stations may be opened each year.

INDIAProf. John Clark Archer, M.A., B.D.

No year as significant as this has ever come round in the Indiancalendar. This brief record of it is arranged under conventionalheadings in an order suggestive of their relative importance in themind of India, and indicative of the extent of the movementsenumerated.

The Reform Bill

The British promise of August 20, 1917, issued ultimately in acomprehensive scheme of reform which came before Parliament last

June as the Indian Reform Bill, passed two readings, and now rests

in the hands of a Joint-Committee. With the formulation of this

definite scheme and its consideration by Parliament has come oppor-tunity for comment and interpretation. The ends in view areself-government for India within the Empire and the union of Indiainto one political whole as a nation. These ends are not so much in

dispute as are the means of securing them. Leading Indians insist

that the experiment should have to do not only with the Provincesbut with the Indian Government itself. They desire for themselvesand the people, so they say, participation at the very top as an in-

India. British provinces and native states more or less under British con-trol, five French colonies and Portuguese India. Area (including French India,

196 square miles, and Portuguese India, 1,638 square miles, but not includingAden), 1,804,463 square miles. Population, 315,973,667, including FrenchIndia, with 268,499, Portuguese India, with 548,772, and the colonies andnative states with 315,156,396 (census of 1911). Of these, 217,586,892 wereHindus, 3,014,466 Sikhs, 1,248,182 Jains, 10,721,453 Buddhists, 100,096Parsis, 66,647,299 Mohammedans, 20,980 Jews, 10,295,168 Animists and3,876,203 Christians (1,490,863 Roman Catholics, 1,625,018 Protestants, and732,368 members of various Eastern churches).

INDIA 43

centive to ambition along the way. The Bill and the Report onwhich it is based have furnished much political capital in both

England and India. In India definite political parties are assumingform. Nationalists criticise the Report as defective—because it doesnot measure up to the extreme demands of the India NationalCongress and the All-India Moslem League, in both of which bodies

social and personal enmities, ethnocentrism, and anti-British senti-

ment are very conspicuous. The Moderates in general favor the

Report but are fearful of the acquisition of power by the Extremists,

in whose hands, they believe, reform might be a new form of

tyranny. The Liberals support the scheme. They met in their

first All-India Conference last October and declared themselves in

favor of it and of communal representation, thus speaking out, in

the latter case particularly, on a really grave issue.

The communal method—by caste or sect rather than by territorial

arrangement—would provide representation for the DepressedClasses and non-Brahmins, and for the Christian community. TheCouncil of the All-India Christian Conference submitted last Novem-ber to the India Government a request for communal representation

as necessary, at least pro tempore, Christian representatives to bedesignated either by election or by nomination. With reference to

all classes, it is not always easy to define "communities," or to sayhow many shall be represented.

Special committees of Parliament have reported on various aspects

of the Reform Bill. One, in favor of a relaxation of Home controlover the India Government, the India Council to be purely advisory,and the Secretary of State for India to be relieved of finance by aHigh Commissioner. Another, that women may not vote. Anotherhas inquired into the administration and organization of the IndianArmy. Although the Bill leaves many things to be desired, its

passage will mark tremendous advance in the reform of a "woodeninelastic, and antediluvian Government." Various associations,

parties, and interests seek modifications and additions, but in general,in so far as India is articulate, she speaks in favor of the Schemeand looks with hopeful expectancy for better days as a self-govern-ing nation of the British Empire.*

Unrest throughout the Country

This year has seen more than "silent revolution" : disturbances andoutbreaks have not been infrequent, particularly in the Panjab. LastMarch a conservative Englishman, well-acquainted with India andwell-disposed toward her, wrote, "It can scarcely be doubted, how-ever sadly we deplore the fact, that relations between Indians andEuropeans are at the moment less happy than they have ever been."

* The Bill has become law as this article goes to press. The center of thescheme is a diarchy of a nominated executive council and ministers chosen froman elected legislative body. Communal representation is provided for; andthe matter of woman suffrage is left with the Provincial governments.

44 INDIA

The Government of India had to meet political danger on several

occasions by a rigorous application of the Defense of India Act.These 'least happy relations," however, developed in connection withthe Rowlatt Act (the Anarchical and Revolutionary Crimes Act,passed in March as an extension of the purely war-time DefenseAct). All the Indian members of the Council opposed its passage,and as law it aroused immediate protest throughout the country.Opposition has seemed to be directed not so much at the theory ofthe Act as at the practice of it, at "the putting of such powers into

the hands of high-handed executives and unscrupulous police."

Because of its passage the Education Member (a non-BrahminIndian) of Government resigned. Because of the "severity" of its

first application Rabindranath Tagore resigned his knighthood.Criticism has ranged all the way from merely "an extraordinaryemergency measure masking as judicial procedure" to "unworthy ofa civilized government." At the instigation of Mr. Gandhi andunder the auspices of his Satyagraha Sabha April 6th was observedas a day of fasting and prayer in silent disapproval of the ActThis movement remained in operation until July, More violent

protests issued in mobs of incendiary, robber, and murderouscharacter, the immediate occasion for which, it is claimed, was thePanjab Government's arrest and deportation of Mr. Gandhi who hadcome from Bombay in behalf of the Sabha. It is true the Act be-

came law at an unfortunate time when the Moslems were uneasyregarding the final treatment of Turkey and when the anti-Brahminmovement was under way in Madras. In Amritsar, for example,there was the looting of a bank and the murder of its two Englishofficials—crimes for which twenty men suffered capital punishment.Prompt measures were taken to suppress all disturbances, and out-

ward quiet was speedily restored. To meet the charges of "severity"

the Home offices have promised to investigate the occurrences. Inpassing it may be noted that Mrs. Besant approves of the RowlattAct. And Har Dyal, once the center of anti-British propaganda in

America, now professes to find in British government due considera-tion for India's welfare.

After all is said, however, it appears that India looks on Englandmore than ever as an alien administration. "Dominance," even "forIndia's good." is called undemocratic. There is, nevertheless, wide-spread satisfaction in India over the recent preservation of herintegrity, and at the immediate prospect of opportunity and incentive

toward self-realization.

When the government of India was transferred from the Companyto the Crown, it was declared that "administration was to be ac-

companied by Ministerial responsibility" to "Parliament, to public

opinion, and to the Crown." The India Bill now declares that

responsibility shall be concerned not only with the Indian peoplesalso, but actually devolve upon them. In this connection it is ofinterest to know that India's two representatives on the ImperialWar Council sat also about the Peace Table, the Maharaja of Bika-nir for the Princes, and Sir S. P. Sinha for the Government of

INDIA 45

India. Since last January, the latter has been Under-Secretary of

State for India in the new Lloyd George cabinet—

"the most encour-aging political happening in the history of British rule in India for

many a long year."Economic Distress

India needs not only constitutional reform but contentment andprosperity, in the words of Lord Sinha. India, that is, the ryot, is

very poor. Economic pressure is keen and universal; and manywould trace recent political outbreaks to it. "Anna-paisa" (coins)

conversation still holds its place of common currency in the bazaar.

Only extraordinary circumstances have forced political issues into a

place of primacy.It has been a hard year, distressful beyond words. One mission-

ary says that "in forty-five years of service he has never known a

time of so painful economic distress." Last July in all India there

were a million and a quarter persons on relief works or receiving

free assistance. In Bombay alone there were 64,000 homeless. Theprice of grains trebled and quadrupled. Seven dollars bought onlyeighty pounds of rice in Bengal. Salt, kerosene, and cloth rose to

such heights that a policy of State control had to be resorted to

under "Defense of India Rules." Exportation of grain, insufficient

rains, influenza, and some speculation were added to war as funda-mental causes of the economic extremity. The Government esti-

mates great shortage of crops this year, due to decreased acreagecultivated, and decreased yield. For example, this year comparedwith 1917-18 stands about as follows: Sesamum: 19 per cent less

acreage cultivated, 43 per cent less yield; cotton: decrease of 19per cent and 8 per cent respectively; sugar cane: slight increase in

acreage, but 29 per cent decrease in raw crop ; wheat : same acreage,but prospect of very short yield; rice: 5 per cent and 34 per centdecrease.

Industrial Progress

A new industrial era is on for India. Having been made moreself-dependent by the war, she is competing for Asiatic and worldtrade, now that the war is over. Industrial chemistry departmentsare being opened in leading colleges, e. g, Forman Christian College,Lahore. More attention is being given the working classes. LastNovember, in Bombay, a Workman's Institute was begun. It ac-complished much in the organization of cooperative credit societies

in the mills, the opening of night schools and reading rooms, themanagement of sports, and the provision of medical relief. Duringthe year beginnings were made in the organization of labor ; and thefirst labor-union strikes occurred, e. g., in Bombay, Madras, andAhmedabad.An Anglo-American Missionary Commission is studying this year

methods of work among villagers. The India Y. M. C. A. is givingadded attention to rural work, the organizing of cooperative creditsocieties, etc. The issue of paper rupee-notes continues, and thoughthey may be had now in books of twenty-five each for greater con-

venience and safety, they are still objectionable to the peasant forthey will not ring, and are subject to destruction by water, fire, andmice.

Influenza and Famine

Plague losses were only about 85,700 as compared with recentaverages of half a million deaths yearly. Influenza, however, morethan made up the figure. Relief was not at all comparable with theneed caused by famine and disease. The Famine Relief Committeeof the National Missionary Association distributed Rs 200,000. Vari-ous home boards and agencies contributed when possible. TheAmerican Red Cross was appealed to, but could not offer assistance.

Aside from the general situation, "thousands of faithful pastors,

preachers, and teachers, with their interesting families had hardlyhalf enough to eat." For reasons somewhat connected with the hardtimes certain of the Kunbi groups of Kathiawad resorted to the sale

of their daughters. During last hot season ten thousand girls weremarried to the highest bidders, at about $325 per head. Thesecultivators thus found means to buy grain and implements, to paytaxes, and—doubtless a considerable and symptomatic motive—to

live above their humble peasant station.

A decrease in vital resistance for 1918 is reported for Bombayby the Anti-Tuberculosis Association, being due to overcrowding andinsanitation, the high cost of rents and food, and to intemperance.By way of correction for all India, the Government made its first

grant in May toward a public health fund, and promises more ade-quate legislation.

The Temperance Movement

The drink evil has been further curbed. The Government of Indiahas raised the duties on liquor and closed certain liquor shops. TheIndian rulers of Bhopal, Hyderabad, Mysore, and Bhavnagar issued,

during the year, pronouncements favoring prohibition. The last-

named ruler actually abolished a majority of the shops in his domainas a step toward total prohibition—progressive action which makeshis recent death seem so untimely.

The Caste System

The spirit of swift and radical change which exists in India re-

garding administration is seen also, although in less emphatic form,in matters of social import. For example, there is strenuousadvocacy of wholesale inter-caste marriage and the break-up of thejoint-family system. Indians are beginning to realize that village-

loyalty and caste- (or sect-) loyalty may harmonize only in onesupreme loyalty to the nation as a whole, to humanity, in fact.

There is hope that democratic government will aid in the achieve-ment of democratic customs, and that caste and karma may notprove insuperable barriers.

In South India caste-feeling grew very intense during the year.

Non-Brahmin effort toward communal representation has led to

INDIA 47

anti-Brahmin demonstrations. The effort is far more than political

;

it was likely forced into being by Brahmin inertia and opposition to

social reform. It has its organ in the new Madras "Justice," butis certainly wrong in its conception of all non-Brahmins as forminga "community"; and it is too pronouncedly a Dravidian movement.Its leader, Dr. T. M. Nair, recently died suddenly in London, whitherhe had gone to espouse the cause.

On the other hand, new signs of inter-group fraternity have ap-peared. Sir Sankaram Nair is a leader of both Brahmins and non-Brahmins alike in South India. Two Indian Christians have beenelected to the Madras legislature by Hindu majorities. Caste is heldin little esteem by the Bombay Hindu Missionary Society. A BengalVaishnavite movement has started in the interest of inter-dining andinter-marriage among castes. At the twenty-fifth anniversarydinner of the Madras Hindu Social Reform Association Brahminsand non-Brahmins ate together. The League of Liberal Brahminsreadmits to Hinduism converts to non-Hindu faiths, and gives aid

to "untouchables." At Jamalpur a Moslem presided at a Hindu re-

ligious gathering and laid the foundation stone of their new temple.

A Hindu spoke for the first time from the pulpit of the great FridayMosque in Delhi, and Moslems have been permitted inside Hindutemples in Bombay, Patna, and elsewhere,—all this due, however,to the temporary fellow-feeling engendered by anti-British propa-ganda. On the ground that public school funds are for all, thegovernments of Travancore and Mysore admit Depressed Classes to

the state schools and do not isolate them in separate institutions.

The Patel Bill (now before the India Legislative Council) providesfor inter-caste marriages,—phenomena which have been actuallyoccurring in all parts of India.

The Bill is criticised for not touching child-marriage and polygamyand because it may lead to a multiplication of castes by the formationof new castes from the progeny of mixed marriages. Christian mis-sionaries and other progressives favor the Bill if it be made to insist

upon monogamy, civil marriage, and marriages between differentreligions as well as castes. Among conservative Hindus their ownmarriage-reform is reducing the cost and time of the ceremony,—

a

community gain, as well as religious concession.

Indian Prison Reform

An India Government Commission is now in America investigat-ing prison administration. Which leads us to note that the Govern-ment is renewing its social program which the war interrupted, andwhich includes not only the improvement of the penal system, butalso the reclamation of criminals, measures to deal with charitableand religious endowments, and the protection of the poor andignorant from usurers.

The Indian Syrian Church

The ancient Syrian Church of South India has awakened to newlife, "has harmonized its divided elements." Some 30,000 members

48 INDIA

met in convention, listened to Dr. Eddy and others, and enlisted by-

thousands for Christian service. Priests and Bishops have planned aprogram in the interest of the lower classes, whom they have solong ignored. During the convention a coolie outcaste was admittedto fellowship.

Mission Advance and Union; Deaths and Retirements

Protestant missions continue to baptize converts at the rate of10,000 a month, and that only a tenth of the available number.Evangelistic efforts of note have occurred during the year, somepurely denominational, some of more personal character, e. g., thoseof Tamil David, and of Sunder Singh, others cooperative. Amongthe last were: the Mission of Service, under the leadership of Dr.Eddy and a composite party, at various centers ; a series of meetingsfor both Christians and non-Christians at various points in Calcutta.

Other aspects of union effort appeared in the conference (Tran-quebar, May, 1919) between the South India United Church andthe Anglican Church which recommended "that the S. I. U. C.

choose men who should be ordained by Anglican bishops togetherwith ministers representing the United Church" ; in the union of theBasel Mission of Malabar with the S. I. U. C, and the Church ofthe Khassia and Lushai Hills with the Presbyterian Church; in thetransfer of the Hermannsburg Mission to be a "mission of the

Joint Synod (Lutheran) of Ohio in the U. S. A.," and the LeipsicMission to be the Swedish Diocesan Mission. In this last body aholding company was formed and a movement begun to organizea national Indian Church. The Chhota Nagpur Mission has becomeautonomous under a committee of the National Missionary Associa-tion. For the first time an Indian presided at the S. India WesleyanSynod. An Indian, Dr. S. K. Datta, has been elected Principal ofForman Christian College. Many Indian Christians—seven in oneparty, including a deacon of the Syrian Church—have come to

America for study.

The list of deaths includes: the distinguished Maratha poet andscholar, and a devoted Christian, Narayan Waman Tilak, Rev.Tukaram Nathoji, called "the most helpful Indian preacher ofWestern India," Bishop Lefray of Calcutta, Metropolitan of India, a

Christian statesman and friend of India (Dr. Foss Westcott has beenchosen in his stead). Commander Booth Tucker, acknowledgedspecialist in the India Government on work among the criminal

classes, has retired.

Non-Christian Religious MovementsIn non-Christian India, the Satyagraha Sabha (vide above) was a

Hindu religious movement, but for political ends and to promulgateswadeshi vows relating to trade. Its suspension* was preceded bythe withdrawal of many leading Indians from membership. Theywere not quite sure of its value as an instrument of protest, howevercordial they might have been toward Mr. Gandhi himself, in whom

* It was resumed in the fall.

INDIA 49

the masses also have great confidence. Hindus by the hundredthousand resorted to Allahabad on the occasion of the Kumbh Mela(a once-in-twelve-years' festival). The second All-India CowConference met in Calcutta, ostensibly in the interest of cow culture,

but a symptom as well of an extensive movement which is beingorganized secretly against cow-killing. It is a movement of the

Brahmins, who, unlike the Samurai of Japan, refuse to renounce anyright to special privilege. A chair of Comparative Religion hasbeen established in Calcutta University. An indication of the extent

of Hindu charities may be had from Bombay's record for the year

:

$8,500,000 spent on 759 objects, such as temples ($3,500,000), medicalrelief ($750,000), and education ($2,500,000). A new phase of re-

ligious sanction for social reform has appeared in the policy ofcertain Indians to reinterpret Karma to fit the newer needs. In the

words of one of them, "only when Indians as individuals and as a

nation realize the full significance of this great doctrine will India

be finally purged of all her social and other evils, of which the

chief is caste." This is interesting to the Christian not only as aneffort to root social reform within Hinduism, but to universalize

Hinduism.Educational

The loss of funds (by the Roman Catholics especially)

occasioned by the war resulted in serious impairment of educational

activity. For example, though not merely a question of funds, oneenemy mission in Madras had one college, four hundred and seventy-

seven schools and 31,000 pupils. A pronounced tendency has ap-peared in certain mission circles to decline grants-in-aid and thus

avoid state control, and to question the soundness of the policy ofcompulsory religious instruction for non-Christians in missionschools. Sunday School teacher-training received further emphasisby the holding of two training schools under the auspices of theIndia S. S. Union, each for a month's duration.

Another state Quinquennial Report on Education has appeared.Three and two-tenths per cent of the population is at school, andthree and eight-tenths years is the average length of school life.

Only one and three one-hundredths per cent of the female popula-tion of India is at school. Indian Christians rank no higherthan third in regard to the education of their girls. Among civilized

nations India is in the fourth class in secondary education, and tenth

in primary. Sanskrit and Arabic schools are in decline. A start-

ling increase is shown in university education, sixty-one per cent

more students than in the previous five-year period. There are sevenhundred and forty-two women students in the eight women'scolleges. Fifty-one India Educational Service men and one hundredand seventy-nine teachers went to war.

Education for WomenThere were thirty-eight graduates, including one woman, at the

first convocation of the Benares Hindu University. The India

50 JAPAN

Woman's University had its first convocation with one graduate.For the first time a blind student, prepared at a school for theblind, sat for entrance into a Provincial University (Calcutta).

Plans are laid for enlarging Queen Mary's College for Women,of Madras, into a Women^s University for Madras. Mysore heldits first ladies' conference, and considered among other things thehigher education of women. The Bombay Female Education Sub-Committee has offered six scholarships to women in Bombay institu-

tions. The Maharaj Kumar of Tikari bequeathed seven million

dollars to found schools in which girls from five to sixteen maystudy in residence according to modern methods. The last All-

India Mohammedan Educational Conference did not discuss theeducation of women. Its president was not able to note any advanceat all in Moslem literacy.

The India Government has not yet adopted free and compulsoryprimary education. An increase in the number of private schools is

significant of dissatisfaction with the official system of higher educa-tion. India's woful illiteracy and mass ignorance is a heavy weightupon her political aspirations, and her leaders are becoming zealousfor the education of the common people. It was primary educationespecially which suffered from the influenza, almost all of theBaroda schools, for example, were closed from two to six months.

India and the WarIt may be of interest to include within this arbitrary selection of

data some facts regarding India's war personnel. The total was1,457,000. There were 552,000 combatants and 391,000 non-com-batants over seas; and 433,000 combatants and 81,000 non-com-batants at home. The 106,594 casualties included 36,696 deaths.

Of the hundred and twenty-five Indian students in the United States,

some twenty were in the U. S. military service, a number as com-missioned officers.

Indirect results of the war are illustrated by events bringing Indiainto closer communication with the rest of the world. An air flight

of nearly 6,000 miles was made from Ipswich to Karachi in seventy-three hours. The plan is under way for a rail line to India acrossher northwest frontier.

JAPANRev. William E. Lampe, Ph.D.

Japan and the Close of the World-WarThe opening of the year 1919 found the Japanese bewildered

and confused. The Armistice had been signed and the Peace Con-ference was about to open. Japan, a non-Christian nation, was tosit at the peace table as one of the five great powers to adjust the

Japan. Limited Monarchy. Area, 148,756 square miles. Population (1916),56,860,735. There is no state religion and entire religious freedom prevails.Shintoism and Buddhism are the prevailing religions.

JAPAN 51

affairs of the nations in the new world. The position of Japan wasone of not only tremendous responsibility but also of stupendousdifficulties. No other one of the five nations was less preparedand ready to face the great issues. Was Japan willing to enter aLeague of Nations,—and who knew what form of league might beproposed? What would be expected of Japan as the dominatingpolitical force in the Orient? In how far would the principle of"self-determination" affect Japan? What would be the attitude ofthe other nations in the matter of Japan's relations to China, andpossibly even to Korea? Would the Peace Conference make adeclaration of race equality, and if not would the Japanese protest

and threaten to leave the Conference?

Relations with China

The relations between Japan and China have been strained formany years. At the end of the war China insisted that Japan with-draw from Shantung and surrender all territory, rights and priv-

ileges which Japan had taken or assumed after driving out theGermans in 1914. Japan's unwillingness to do this and the declina-

tion of the other Allies to compel her to do so, led China to refuseto sign the treaty of peace. The effect of this is far-reaching. Tosay the least it has embarrassed Japan. On her decision in this

matter may rest not only the future peace of the Orient, but also

her policy as to international brotherhood.

The Uprising in Chosen

Chosen has been, since 1910, a part of Japan. On March 1, 1919,a manifesto of independence was issued by the Koreans. Withina few weeks several thousand Koreans were killed and thousandsmore, including the majority of the Christian pastors, were throwninto prison. Scores of churches were burned. Representatives ofChosen made an appeal to the Peace Conference that was not recog-nized. It is to the credit of Christians in Japan that the Federationof Japanese Churches sent a deputation to Chosen to investigate andthat the Japanese Christians spoke in open condemnation of thewrongdoing of their countrymen and of their own government in

Chosen. The demand of the Christians reenforced the demand ofother high-minded Japanese for improvement in the administrationof Chosen, and was productive of immediate and good results.

Japan and America

There is no disguising the fact that there is bitter feeling towardAmerica on the part of a section of the Japanese people and thatthere is strong antipathy to the Japanese in certain influential circles

in the United States. There is no need to state the causes for this

feeling, but it is well to call attention to it, for it has an importantbearing upon missionary work. More than three-fourths of all themissionaries in Japan are from the United States. Missionaries arejust now being looked upon with somewhat of suspicion and distrust,

52 JAPAN

but let us hope that this is only temporary. The Japanese may notknow and some of them might be unwilling to admit the fact, but theChristian missionaries are Japan's best friends and are renderingher invaluable service in maintaining cordial relations between Japanand other nations.

World's Sunday School Association

The holding of the next World's Sunday School Convention in

Tokyo in October, 1920, affords a most excellent opportunity to the

Japanese and to the many Christian workers from other lands whowill go to Japan for the Convention, to demonstrate the spirit of aChristian world brotherhood. The Convention may prove of greathelp to all missionary work in the Orient.

Democracy

The victory of the Allies was quite generally regarded in Japanas the triumph of democracy. Although Japan has had a constitu-

tion and good government, the very limited suffrage (two and six-

tenths per cent of the population), the clan control, the ascendancyof the military party, the muzzling of the press and check upon free

speech, and the fear of Christians that they should be regarded aslacking in patriotism, have suppressed the people. They rejoice that

the end of militarism in Japan has come. "Democracy," withouttranslation, is a very popular word.Ex-Minister Ozaki, the most progressive leader in Japan, said

recently, "I wish that you, young men of Japan, as well as all

foreigners, would fairly understand the fact that Japan was origi-

nally a democratic nation. Japan has been practically Germanizedin the last few decades and all that has been spoken or done bythe militarists in this country, like Count Terauchi, ex-Premier, areas the Germans would have often spoken and done."

Interpreters of Democracy

Early in 1919 the Japanese Federation of Churches issued a strik-

ing Declaration in which the statement was made that the victory in

war was the victory of democracy, based upon international right-

eousness and justice, principles which Christianity has always up-held. The Declaration named five points as the fundamentals ofdemocracy which need special emphasis at this time.

Christian Education

Christian schools have made real progress during the past year.

The influence of the schools is increasing. Large gifts were madeby Japanese, many of them not Christians, for the promotion ofChristian Education.The new Woman's Christian College, a union institution in which

six Mission Boards are cooperating, has completed the first year ofits work and has met with a success which surpasses the expectations

JAPAN 53

of its founders. Nearly 150 students were enrolled. Over half of

the students are professing Christians. Almost all of the members of

the faculty are Christians and there is no one connected with the

teaching staff who is not friendly to the Christian ideals for whichthe institution stands.

Government Ordinances for Higher Education

The promulgation of the University and High School (KotoGakko) Ordinances in December, 1918, has a great bearing uponthe problems of Christian schools in Japan. The number of yearsof the courses of the several grades of schools has been changed.There have been thus far few schools above the Middle School gradeunder Christian auspices, but several High Schools (the equivalent

of smaller colleges in America) have been established. Henceforthsuch institutions must be well provided with general equipment anda qualified faculty and must also have an endowment of at least

yen 500,000 ($250,000) in the form of cash, national bonds or suchbonds as are approved by the Minister of Education.

The Church

There was not a large increase in baptisms or accessions to theChurch during 1919. One reason for this is that for several yearsthere has been unusually aggressive opposition toward Christianity.

Some at least of the causes of this opposition have already disap-

peared. The victory of the Allies greatly enhanced the prestige ofChristianity in the eyes of the Japanese.

Evangelistic work has been carried on vigorously. Mr. Kanamorihas conducted strenuous campaigns and many thousands of his

hearers enrolled as "deciders" for Christianity. There are manyindications that the time is ripe for a great harvest.The middle class, which has been the main support of the Church,

is being crushed by the high cost of living. Prices have gone up andunless salaries soon follow Christian work may suffer.

Social Service

Christian missionaries have been recently deeply impressed by thecall to social service. Japan has been an agricultural nation, but a

wave of industrialism has been sweeping over the land and hasbrought new and in some respects pitiable conditions. The numberof industrial workers increased nearly fifty per cent during the fouryears of the war. More than half of the employees in the privatefactories of Japan are women, and the majority of them are undertwenty years of age. Christians are now strongly agitating the mak-ing of Sunday a rest-day for laborers.

The Future

Japan must be speedily evangelized, for her own sake and that ofall Asia. Deputations have been in Japan in 1919 and surveys are

54 MALAYSIA

being made to determine the needs in men and money that Japanmay be evangelized.

The missionaries are calling loudly for reenforcements. TheJapanese Christians are emphatic in their appeals for more workersfrom America.There never was a time in missionary history when Japan was so

open to hear the message of Christianity.

MALAYSIARev. John R. Denyes, D.D.

The term, Malaysia, properly includes the Malay Peninsula and the

whole of the archipelago occupied by the Malay race. But for the

purposes of this report the name is restricted to the lower, orBritish, part of the Peninsula and the British part of Borneo. Theupper part of the Peninsula belongs with Siam and the remainingpart of the island world is covered by the report of the NetherlandsEast Indies.

Political and Social Matters

This part of the world did not figure much in the war telegrams,

yet it felt the effects of the war. As the country grows most of its

own food, there was little hardship during the first two years of thestruggle. But as this is the great tin and rubber producing part ofthe world, the commercial life of the country depends upon theshipping. By the beginning of 1918 the number of ships com-mandeered by the government made it impossible to dispose of thelarge stocks of tin and rubber, and prices, especially of rubber,dropped fifty per cent. Government work on buildings and railwayconstruction was stopped by the lack of material. Business waspretty much at a standstill. With the coming of the armistice andthe loosening of the regulations on shipping has come a rapid returnof prosperity. All this has its direct relation to mission work, formuch of the work in British Malaysia is self-supporting educationalwork, and progress depends somewhat upon commercial conditions.

Near the close of the year 1917 the government railway was com-pleted from Penang on the west side of the Peninsula to connectwith the railway system of Siam. This makes it possible to travel

British Malaysia. Including the Straits Settlements (British Crown Colony),the Federated Malay States (British Protectorate), and Non-Federated States(British Protectorates, except Johore, which is an independent Malay state withinthe British sphere of influence, accepting a British advisor).

by rail all the way from Singapore to Bangkok, Siam, a three dayjourney. The coming of this railway opens to settlement millions of

acres of extremely fertile land where now there are scarcely anypeople at all ; and also opens up great stretches of tin-bearing terri-

tory as yet scarcely explored. As this section of the Peninsulabecomes settled the trade will naturally flow down towards Penang,for the railway shortens the journey from Europe for passengersand freight by seven days or more.At the beginning of the war the fear of complications led to the

stopping of immigration and the repatriation of many thousands ofChinese and Indian laborers. But as the prospects of trouble de-

creased the bars were lifted and the stream has turned to its old

channel again. More than a hundred thousand Indians, mostlyTamils from south India, and a quarter of a million Chinese find

their way -to Malaysia every year.

Public MoralsIt is a matter of regret that the government of British Malaysia

has not yet seen its way clear to the prohibition of the opium traffic.

This is here a government monopoly. Out of a total revenue for theStraits Settlements of more than nineteen millions of Straits dollars,

three-fourths is derived from licenses and excise. Opium sales

realized nearly thirteen million dollars ; the revenue from liquors

nearly two and a half millions, and from tobacco over one million.

The Chinese business men in Malaysia make money easily, andthere is a strong tendency to copy not only the clothes and houses,but also the vices of the Europeans. The country is being floodedwith cheap, poisonous liquor made in China and drunkenness is onthe increase. There has been a marked increase in insanity as aresult of alcoholism. Also the Indian coolie has brought with himhis toddy-drinking habit, and the larger wages lead to excessivedrinking. The planters, doctors, and Churches continue to protest,

but toddy-drinking is on the increase.

The Mission ProblemThe mission problem here is three-fold: that of reaching the

aborigines, the Mohammedan Malays, and the immigrants fromIndia and China.The Anglican mission in Sarawak, Borneo, is doing evangelistic

work among the Dyak head-hunters. They occupy four or five ofthe principal valleys of Sarawak, and some three thousand of theDyaks have been won to Christianity. Through its industrial colonyin Sarawak the Methodists have also come into contact with theDyaks and are making a beginning of work among them. TheAnglicans have had some little success also among the tribes ofBritish North Borneo.For the million and a half of the Mohammedan Malays of the

Straits Settlements and the Native Malay States practically noreligious work is being done. The Anglicans have a small hospitalfor women at Malacca, and the Methodists have two small day

56 NETHERLANDS EAST INDIES

schools for Malay girls in Singapore. There is freedom to workamong the Moslems in the Straits Settlements, but there would beopposition in the Native States, where the government is nominallyunder Mohammedan Sultans.

The work among the immigrants from India and China is largely

that of evangelism through education. The reason is that thedemand for English education is so great that it is possible to con-duct large educational work on a self-supporting basis. Thepolicy which lies behind is that of providing Christian leadership forthe multitudes which will shortly occupy this fertile land. About ten

thousand boys and girls are now in Protestant mission schools. Ofthese about ninety per cent are Chinese and Indians.Two years ago a large amount of money was pledged by the

wealthy Chinese of Singapore and the Peninsula for the establishing

of a Methodist University at Singapore. But for a year the projecthas been held up pending the formulation of plans by the governmentregarding higher education.

Industrial Colonies

For fifteen years the Methodists have had in successful operationtwo Chinese industrial colonies, one in Sarawak and the other on thewest side of the Peninsula. In each case a small group of ChineseChristians were brought down from China and given small grantsof land by the government. These colonies have grown till thereare several thousand people in each colony. Schools and churchesare flourishing, and the people are becoming well-to-do. The pur-pose of these colonies is, first, to provide homes for Christian peoplewho are living on a low economic plane in China ; and second, toform a Christian nucleus for the coming civilization. Financiallyand religiously these colonies are proving a great success. Twoother colonies have recently been started on the Peninsula.

The Centenary

Under the impulse of the Centenary the Methodists plan to extendtheir Anglo-Chinese school system along the lines of the new rail-

ways, especially in the unoccupied territory on the eastern side ofthe Peninsula and up towards Siam ; and through evangelistic mis-sionaries carry on a more intensive follow-up campaign among theschool constituencies.

Indies. A recent trade paper says, "The combination of completesafety and a friendly welcome and an unlimited opportunity andprotection by a strong and liberal government is not to be found at

every turn. Also, when it is to be had it calls for prompt action

over here. The Dutch East Indies offers just that combination ofconditions."The submarine warfare forced the Dutch companies to transfer

their steamers from the Holland-India route and to begin regularruns between Java and San Francisco. This led to an enormousincrease in the trade between this country and the East Indies. Theembargo by this country on the exportation of many lines of goodshindered a free exchange, yet one-fourth of their exports are nowbilled to America. Their exports to this country have grown from$6,000,000, in 1913 to $80,000,000, in 1918. Their imports from theUnited States were $2,769,000, in 1915. In 1918 they were $19,778,000.The Dutch Colonial Government is so desirous of continuing this

trade which the war has started that they have sent one of their

foremost bankers here as a special commissioner to awaken Ameri-can business men to the opportunity offered by the fifty millionpeople of their islands.

The People

In the Dutch East Indies there are three classes of people, apartfrom the Europeans. These are, the uncivilized tribes living in theinterior of the islands, Borneo, Sumatra, and Celebes, and the smallerislands. These folks are mostly pagan and include the head-huntersand tribes more or less cannibal. Then there are the forty millionsof Mohammedans, of whom thirty-five millions live in the island ofJava, and the rest all about the coast regions of the other islands.

The other class would include more or less of a million Chineseliving in the cities and towns.

Religious Movements

Much is said of the mass movements of Asiatic countries, butfew realize that in the Dutch islands have been some of the largest

religious movements of modern times. In the north of Celebes andthe adjacent islands some 400,000 of the native tribes have come overfrom heathenism. In north Sumatra a hundred thousand cannibalshave been won to Christ. And in Java thirty thousand Mohamme-dans have embraced our faith. This is the largest group of Moslemsever brought into the Christian Church.

Missionary Societies

There are two German and ten Dutch Societies working in this

field. The Methodist Episcopal Church, established here in 1905,and the Seventh-Day Adventists are the only American Societies

in the Dutch Islands.

Holland being neutral during the war, the work of the Germansocieties was not interfered with by the government, though theysuffered greatly from lack of funds. Recent reports indicate that

58 NETHERLANDS EAST INDIES

the Missionary Societies in Germany have been revived and that

they will carry on their work as before the war.

Moral Issues

Under pressure of awakened public sentiment the Governmenthas recently restricted the licensing of public gambling houses in

North Sumatra and West Borneo. But public lotteries are still

among the sources of public revenue in the Dutch East Indies, andRoman Catholics and State Churches employ lotteries for raising

building funds.The report of a recent conference says, "The extent to which

drink is increasing among the native peoples of this archipelagowarns us that something radical must be done. It would be a matterof shame if, under the aegis of a Christian government, a Moslempeople should be led to drunkenness." It also adds, "The loose

public sentiment on marriage and divorce is alarming in the extreme.That the evil of illegal cohabitation of Europeans throughout this

archipelago is so prevalent is a shame and disgrace to so-called

civilization."

Mohammedan WorkJust prior to and at the opening of the war a religio-political

society called Sarikat Islam, spread over the whole archipelago. In

a few months it claimed a membership of hundreds of thousands.It was the conviction of the Mohammedans that Germany wouldwin, and that through her help Turkey would become a world power,and the Moslems would dominate the Mohammedan countries.

There was a good deal of restlessness among the people. But whenit seemed that Germany had lost, there was dismay. "Now certain

Moslems are saying that there is to be a great conflict between Satanand the representative of Islam, with the victory for Satan. TheLord Jesus is then to come and conquer Satan, whereupon all

Mohammedans will become Christians."

While the time seems ripe for a great religious movement, yetthe fact remains that Islam is steadily and rapidly winning tens ofthousands over from paganism to Mohammedanism. The coastregions of all the islands are Moslem already, and the faith ofIslam is rapidly penetrating to all the tribes of the interior. Withina generation at least five millions of these now pagans will passover to Christianity or Mohammedanism.The movements of Mohammedans towards Christianity in Java

and Sumatra in the past have been largely the result of the earnestconsecration of a single person or a small group of persons whoinspired faith. Large numbers were brought in, and then the move-ment slowly came to a standstill for lack of men and money to carryit forward. There is need of a systematic, extensive, and prolongedcampaign.

Educational Policies

Twenty years ago the Chinese of Java organized a society calledTiong Hwa Hwe Koan, which undertook to provide education for

SIAM 59

the Chinese boys and girls in Chinese and English. More than ahundred schools were started. In the course of a few years theyrealized that cheap teachers picked up at random were not satisfac-

tory. This led them to invite the Methodist Mission to provide themwith missionary teachers. For the past ten years various schoolsin Java and Banka have been in charge of missionaries.

This demand of the Chinese for European education and theprofound impression made all over the East by the American experi-

ment in the Philippines has led the Dutch colonial government to

undertake on a fairly extensive scale the teaching of Dutch to theChinese and natives. This policy promises to become permanent,and will probably be greatly extended. Hitherto the policy has beento teach two languages in all native schools, making in each case thelocal vernacular primary and the Malay always the secondary. Thispolicy has led to the making of Malay the common language of all

the peoples.

Results of the Methodist Centenary for Java

Now that the Centenary has passed from dream to reality and thefunds have actually been pledged, it is possible to forecast the pro-gram of the Methodist work in the Netherlands Indies. This will

include the clearing of all debts now on property, the erection ofeight or ten hospitals and equipping them with suitable staff, thehousing of the Chinese day and boarding school at Buitenzorg, theopening of scores of village schools, the building of a Bible-TrainingSchool for preachers and teachers, and the sending out of a goodlynumber of evangelistic missionaries. It is purposed to undertake asystematic forward movement for reaching the Mohammedans. Inconnection with each hospital will be placed evangelistic missionarieswho will follow up the medical cases and will establish and super-vise a large number of village schools.

SIAMRev. Hugh Taylor, D.D.

The Presbyterian Church has been conducting two Missions forSiam : one for the Siamese proper and one for the Laos tribes ofthe North. As these two peoples are gradually being absorbed into

one homogeneous whole the two Missions are looking forward touniting into one. One Mission Press has been eliminated and nowthe other does the work of both. The same can be said with regardto the management of the financial side of the work: one treasurerserves both Missions. A Joint Council sits on matters of commoninterest to both.

A Changing Buddhism

The very considerable effort being made, by the highest authorities

Siam. Limited Monarchy. Area, about 195,000 square miles. Population(191 5- 191 6), 8,819,686. The prevailing religion is Buddhism.

60 SIAM

in Church and State, to create a distinct revival of Buddhism, the

State religion, is being carried on in several ways, the most importantof which is by infusing into the faith that which it lacks to make it a

vital religion. Hymns of praise and devotion, in which the as-

sembled people can join, are being introduced. Some of these hymnsare taken from the Christian collection, changing only the names of

God and Christ to that of Buddah. He has been given the title

"Father" and the people taught to say "Our Father Buddah." "TheHoly Buddhist Trinity" is another idea proclaimed. The warbrought out the need for aid from a personal power, so public

prayers were addressed to Buddah and the Royal Ancestors, and,

when the armistice was signed, praise and thanksgiving wererendered to these for their active service in giving the victory.

These startling innovations make the devout Buddhist think. Theinquiring mind seeking for the source finds it of course in the Prot-estant and Roman Catholic forms of Christianity. Some of the mostadvanced thinkers have come to believe that Jesus Christ is theBuddhist Messiah for whose advent they have "been accustomed to

pray in the longing wish thrown out into the infinite void, "Oh

!

That I might live to see the face of Phra' Allenyamatai."

Development of Christianity

There have been no spectacular developments in the ChristianChurch. A steady, though slow, growth has for many years markedthe progress of Mission work in Siam. Attainments in Christian life

of the converts have reached higher levels nearer the ideal. Defec-tions from the faith, always grievous to those who shepherd the

flock, have been few.Education

Having a learned king is telling wonderfully on the progress ofeducation in Siam. Of recent years there has been an entire re-

vision of the whole educational system, and the effect of it is nowreaching to the utmost borders of the land. It is probably safe to

say that there is not a school in the country, Government or Mission,that does not conform to the standards set by the public schools andtake the general examinations.A matter to be noted is that the schools of the South Siam Mis-

sion are self-supporting while those of the Xorth Siam Mission arenot. The former have prospered and been able to expand their workthese war times. The latter have had to curtail their work to theamount that they have lost out on assistance from America. Theself-supporting Mission school, catering to the class of people whoare able to pay the bills, charges a sum that is in excess of the entire

family income of a vast majority of the Northern Christians. Thehighest school in the North, Prince Royal's College, was compelledto cut out some of its classes for lack of funds ; while the BangkokChristian College of the South Mission increased its enrollment to

the unprecedented number of four hundred and forty-two. PrinceRoyal's College is making a brave effort to meet the growing needs

FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA 61

of the growing Christian population of the North. An appealing cry

is issued for more adequate support and an expansion of the building

equipment to enable them to take in every Christian student applying

for higher education. This institution is a feeder for the Theo-logical Training School and also in it is conducted the only NormalSchool in the North.

Bangkok Christian College

A very interesting situation has arisen in connection with BangkokChristian College. There are two hundred thousand Chinese in

Bangkok. These sought to establish a school of their own. Thiswas not sanctioned by the Government, but the Christian College hasbeen given permission to open a department for the Chinese in con-nection with the work for the Siamese. The Chinese immediatelyadvanced 40,000 ticals to purchase land for the immediate expansionneeds. Having made this start they already see visions of somethinggreat for their boys. They are proposing to the Mission to go outwhere there is room and put up a plant that will accommodate twothousand Chinese students. This gives a challenge to the Siameseto do the same and a challenge to the Church in America to furnishChristian teachers for the four thousand. Indeed with funds raisedlargely from non-Christian Chinese and Siamese of Bangkok theopportunity is being thrust in the very face of the Mission and theChurch to make the Bangkok Christian College second only to

Canton Christian College. Shall we meet the challenge?

Interruption of Mission WorkOnly a few of the native churches have kept up regular services

throughout the period of the war. In Marash and in Constantinoplethere were constant and unbroken series of services, as well as in

Smyrna and a few other places, but generally the services were

62 FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA

suspended, owing to the scattering of the congregations, and espe-cially to the deportations of the pastors, many of whom suffered

martyrdom for their faith.

The same is true in a large measure of the educational work.The schools in Constantinople, Smyrna, Harpoot and Marash con-tinued throughout last year. In some places the continuity wasbroken in upon, and in others there was no attempt to open schools.

The year, however, has not been a year of complete loss by anymeans. Wherever the Protestant preachers and Christian workershave gone they have continued their work of evangelism. Serviceswere held in the deserts of Mesopotamia, along the road as refugeeswere going to their place of banishment or returning therefrom.The Christian worker has been present in the barracks at Aleppo andDamascus and other places where thousands of refugees were con-gregated.

Eagerness for Schools

I was impressed in different parts of Armenia to see the eagernessof the people for schools. Children for the most part have receivedno schooling for four, and some of them for five years. Delegationsfrom villages came presenting their petition, not for bread or for

clothing—and they were woefully destitute of both—but for teachersthat their children might have an education.

Medical WorkThe medical work in the earlier part of the war was placed

under the Red Cross, but later the Red Cross withdrew and withinthe last year all of the medical plants throughout Turkey have beentaken over by the Near East Relief Committee. All of these institu-

tions are today in the hands of the Near East Relief, and the mis-sionary physicians who are working with them, together with a larger

number of appointees of the N. E. R., are carrying on a most ex-tensive medical work, not only throughout the fields hitherto coveredby the American Board, but in the Russian Caucasus as well.

Friendliness toward Missions in Greek Territory

A new phase of the work is opening up in the fact that throughrecent changes brought about by the war the mission stations ofSmyrna and Salonica have fallen under the control of Greece.Greece hitherto has not been hospitable to missionary work of anykind. In the two stations above mentioned, however, they are show-ing a friendliness unexpected and an assurance was given to thewriter by the Bishops of Salonica, Smyrna and Philadelphia that

they would welcome the strengthening of the mission work in thoseplaces, but with special reference to work among the Mohammedans.The Greek ecclesiastics said that they could not work easily and ac-ceptably among Moslems, but the Protestant missionaries were so

organized that they could do it most effectively. They all claimed

FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA 63

that there was a great field among the Mohammedans for the Chris-

tian approach and urged that steps be taken in that direction. I

found in all parts of Turkey, both on the part of the missionaries andthe people themselves, a deep-seated feeling that the Moslem mindwas assuming a different attitude toward Christian truth than it

had assumed before in the whole century of missionary work. Thereseemed to be a receptiveness to Christian truth, a readiness to listen,

and in not a few cases a willingness to respond. It was acceptedthat the heavy restraint hitherto imposed upon all Moslems was^ in

part at least lifted and there would be in the future an increasing

religious freedom for all classes in Turkey.

Advance among the Kurds

At the same time, the Kurdish fields in the eastern part of Turkeyhave assumed new significance. During the war the Kurds identified

themselves more directly with the missionaries and with the Ar-menians. Tens of thousands of Armenians were saved by the co-

operation and direct help of the Kurds in that the Kurds aided themacross the line into Russia as they were threatened on the Turkishside. Kurdish officials, whom the writer met in Armenia, urgedthat schools be opened more widely through Armenia and that pro-vision be made for accepting the Kurds into those schools. Thereare great possibilities wrapped up in the Kurdish people who haveas yet hardly been touched by Christian truth.

The Caucasus

Another field opening is the Russian Caucasus. Through a greaterpart of the war a large number of Y. M. C. A. Secretaries andAmerican Board missionaries were engaged in relief work, and someare still there. Their work has commended itself to all classes, andpressure is already being brought to bear upon the American Boardto establish permanent work in Armenia in the Caucasus.At the same time, the Georgians have put in petitions urging the

opening of work among them similar to that which has been carriedon in Turkey. It is very evident that the war has made greatchanges in the point of view of many of the people of the old Otto-man Empire and of Transcaucasia, opening new fields for occupa-tion and putting new responsibility upon American Christianity.

SYRIA AND PALESTINERev. Stanley White, D.D.

In former editions of the Year Book, Syria and Palestine havebeen treated individually. Today they have been so interlocked byevents that their story is almost identical.

Allenby's magnificent march to the North brought the wholecountry from Egypt on the south to Aleppo on the north, under the

64 FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA

control of the Allied Forces. As enemy-occupied territory, thewhole of this Eastern shore of the Mediterranean was unified.

Relief WorkThe work of the relief societies was another means of binding the

people of the various sections together. First came the Red Crosswith its corps of devoted workers who performed a splendid servicein opening orphanages and hospitals and by their ministry to the townsdevastated by disease and famine. With the close of the war, their

work was transferred to the Near East Relief Committee with its

workrooms, soup kitchens and schools and its loyal band of youngAmericans supported in their humane task by hundreds of the finest

flower of young Syrian Manhood and Womanhood. These youngnative people, most of them educated in Mission Schools andcolleges, have been the backbone of the work. They have caughtthe American spirit of service and in them lies the hope of the Syriaof the future. And this work of unification has brought the Missionforces together as never before. Having suffered and worked to-

gether during the war, they are ready to go forward as a single armyto take advantage of the new opportunities.

Mission Conference at Suk-el-Gharb

The Relief work helps to break down bigotry and to open humanhearts to God's message. Realizing this, the representatives of all

the Missions in Syria and Palestine met together in Suk-el-Gharband discussed the conditions and outlook. As a result, they maderecommendations covering the following points

:

First : The attention of the American Peace delegates in Paris wascalled to the fact that while missionary societies are ready to acceptgovernmental regulations and standards, still, in harmony with guar-antees of religious freedom, private organizations should be guaran-teed the right to give religious education and in the language bestfitted to make the work effective.

Second: The attention of Mission Boards and societies at home is

called to large districts in Syria and Palestine that are inadequatelyoccupied or unworked fields. These include Kasrawan (Lebanon),Damascus, Aleppo (with 240,000 inhabitants), the Nusariyeh Moun-tains, East of the Jordan and North Arabia. In these districts arelarge numbers of Moslems, Jews and backward Christian sects.

Third: Favorable opportunities for Christian work have resulted

from the expulsion of the Turkish Government. Travel is facili-

tated and the people are eager for education and advancement. Therelief work has opened many hearts to Christianity.

Fourth : In order to promote unity and harmony in mission workamong native churches, the Conference recommends such a unionor federation of churches on the field as shall obviate existing

differences.

Fifth: A permanent organization of the conference of missionaries

was effected and to the Continuation Committee were entrustedarrangements for future meetings, the incorporation of the Educa-

FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA 65

tional Union of Syria and Palestine, the arrangements for occupyingnew territory, the union training of missionary workers, the promo-tion of united publication interests, the development of Sunday-school work and the adjustment of financial questions of commoninterest to all missions.

Church Unity

Perhaps the most significant outcome of the Conference was the

sympathetic consideration in the past of all the Missionaries, includ-

ing such widely divergent groups as the Friends Society and the

Church Missionary Society, of the possibility of having one UnitedChurch for the whole of Syria and Palestine. Naturally, the future

of theland will be largely determined by the power that assumes the

Mandate, but it is safe to say that under any circumstances the forces

of Christ will be unified as never before. Some of the problems of

reconstruction to be faced by this united force are

:

Reconstruction

First, there will be the necessary work of rehabilitation of

destroyed cities and the rebuilding of homes. Already plans are

under way, both by the British authorities and by the Relief Com-mittees, to accomplish these ends. A large part of Armenia will,

after a few months, be inaccessible so far as food supplies are con-

cerned. The problem therefore is a two-fold one. The peoplemust not be sent back to their cities unless provision is made bothfor housing and for feeding during the winter, for a large part of

Armenia lies within a territory which is practically isolated after

October first. The plan that is being mapped out is to discover in

these various Armenian cities how many returning families can beabsorbed and taken care of, both as to house and food, and to sendback only such a number as, will guarantee their not becoming acharge upon the community. All others must be provided for at

some point of concentration or distribution until the winter is over.

This is an enormous but not impossible task.

Fortunately, the Armenian is a notably thrifty person. His ability

to make money accentuates both his virtues and his vices. It doesnot require, therefore, a particularly large expenditure of money to

reestablish him in his home. He builds simply and lives cheaply andvery quickly begins to provide his own support. It would seem nowthat perhaps about 25 per cent of those who have been deported anddriven from their homes can be repatriated before the coming winter.

The rest must be cared for until the spring time, when they in turncan be assisted in starting their new lives.

Conserving the Children

A second great field of human conservation will be with the chil-

dren. This is a large problem, but one that has great promise in it,

150,000 orphans will require a large outlay of money, but if they arewatched over by those who have high ideals, they become a fruitful

66 FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA

field for future citizenship of a far higher character than was mani-fested in the previous generation. So large a number of childrenmust necessarily be provided for in a very simple way, and some ofthem will have to be sacrificed in order that the others may be givenall the benefits of proper care. This sacrifice must come through a

policy which will return a portion of these children to relatives, if

they can be found, into whose care they can be entrusted. It will besimply impossible for foreign funds to provide adequately for thewhole number. On the other hand, it seems a vital necessity thatthere should be established in various parts of Syria orphanages ofa modern type, where children selected from the great mass ofthose now under the care of Relief Committees, and children whoare absolutely without anyone to whom they can be returned, shouldbe trained for future citizenship. No finer gift could be given byAmerica to these Eastern countries. The Children of America couldrender a beautiful service to the Children of the Near East by con-tributing funds sufficient to meet this great need. When one visits

the orphanages and sees the splendid material and the response ofthese children to proper care, he realizes that this is a place wherehuman conservation is most necessarv and most feasible.

Raising the Moral Tone

A third point where human conservation must be practised is theraising of the general moral tone of these communities of the NearEast. I have already intimated that moral laws have sagged terribly

and have given us an acute problem at the present time, but there is

another phase of the question that should not be forgotten. Thepeople of the Turkish Empire have been for so long compelled to

live by their wits and to accomplish their desires by deceiving anunjust authority that subtlety and deceit seem to be ingrained in

them. Absolute frankness and straightforwardness is at a discount.

It is difficult to learn the truth by questioning any group of people.

They either reply as they think the questioner desires, or they reply

with a thought of the effect upon themselves.There must be established in this country, by government and

through private enterprise, educational institutions of the highest

type, where ethical ideals and moral principles will be emphasizedin such a way that the people will realize that the way to prosperityis honesty, righteousness, fair dealing and sacrificial service.

The Outlook

The outlook in Syria is problematical but not dark. Barriers thatformerly held the Missionary in check have been removed and hopesthat had for years been unrealized are now possible of fruition. Theworkers feel this. It shows in their lightened faces and though wornwith their long ministry and anxiety, they are eager for the task.

Christian America must speak the word, provide the means andfurnish the recruits that will assure their success.

FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA 67

ARABIA AND MESOPOTAMIARev. William I. Chamberlain, Ph.D.

Its Significance

The significance of Arabia and Mesopotamia from the missionarypoint of view lies in the fact that the former is associated with the

beginnings of Mohammedanism, with its sacred cities of Mecca andMedina, while the latter, including the valleys of the Tigris and the

Euphrates, is so largely associated with Old Testament history.

Missionary Occupation

So" far as aggressive missionary work is concerned, Arabia haslargely been a neglected country. The United Free Church of Scot-land has for nearly four decades maintained a Mission at the

Southernmost point of Arabia, at Aden, which has been largely

carried on through the agency of medical work. In Mesopotamia,at Bagdad, the Church Missionary Society has maintained evan-gelistic and medical work for many years. With these exceptions,

no extended missionary work was carried on in these countries until

the undertaking, in 1889, of the establishment of a Mission in thePersian Gulf, more particularly in the cities of Arabia on theWestern Coast of the Gulf. In that year, the Arabian Mission ofthe Reformed Church in America was organized and Rev. JamesCantine sailed as its first missionary to establish stations in EasternArabia. He was followed in the succeeding year by Rev. Samuel M.Zwemer. Together these two pioneer missionaries established sta-

tions at Basrah in the North, on the Island of Bahrein off theEastern Coast of Arabia, and at Maskat in the Gulf of Oman.Later a station was established a few hundred miles South of Basrahat Kuweit. This Mission has now become thoroughly establishedin these several stations, maintaining a number of out-stations, oneat Linga, in Persia, on the Eastern Coast of the Gulf, and at Amaraand Nasariah Northward in Mesopotamia. This Mission now main-tains about thirty-five missionaries in its several stations, associatedwith whom there are about as many evangelists, teachers and BibleWomen.

Methods of WorkSchools are established in the stations, but with the exception of

that at Basrah, they have not been largely attended. Importantmedical work is carried on in each one of these stations, in all ofwhich, except Maskat, there are hospitals as well as dispensaries.Bible shops are the main dependence for evangelistic work. In theseshops, in the center of the town, a supply of Scriptures and otherChristian literature is kept. These give occasion for discussion withArab visitors through which means a Christian propaganda is main-tained. Arabic Scriptures have had a total circulation of 1,200,000copies during the last twenty years. The hospitals have been a veryimportant element in the missionary work in Arabia. Prejudice has

68 FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA

been broken down and the friendly attitude of important Arab trades-men and chiefs has been thus secured. The patients treated in oneyear approximate 40,000.

Effect of the WarThe war has very greatly affected conditions in both parts of this

mission field. The advance of the British Expeditionary Forces upthe Valley of the Tigris and the Euphrates, and the occupation ofBagdad, have opened the entire country of Mesopotamia to

occupancy by missionary agencies, which, under Turkish rule, wasonly possible to a very limited degree. The Arabian Mission expects,

as soon as the country is settled, to open new stations in the territory

thus laid bare to Christian evangelism in Mesopotamia and in theinterior of Arabia, special funds having been contributed for this

purpose. Similarly, the conditions of war have brought aboutfriendly relations between the Arab Chiefs of the Interior andWestern Arabia with the political representatives of the British

Government and the missionaries. The official recognition by Eng-land, France and Italy of the proclamation of the Grand Sherif ofMecca as King of the Hedjaz is a far reaching step, and invests aremarkable figure with singular interest.

Hedjaz

This province of Western Arabia to which the name of Hedjazhas been given extends along the Arab sea coast from the Gulf ofAkaba to the south of Taif. It is bounded on the north by Syria, onthe east by Nafud Desert and by Nejd, and on the south by Asir.

In length it is about seven hundred and fifty miles, and its greatestbreadth is about two hundred miles. Barren and uninviting mostlyin its northern part, yet with many very fertile and well-cultivated

portions in the southern part, sustaining a brave and hardy and fear-

less population, the chief claim of Hedjaz to fame is that it containsthe Holy Cities of Mecca and Medina, to which Moslem Pilgrimscome yearly from all parts of the world. The independence fromTurkey of this section of Arabia had a very important bearing in theBritish Campaign in Mesopotamia, and in the future undoubtedlywill affect missionary work in Arabia. Through the friendship ofKing Hussein, of Hedjaz, with the great Chief of the Interior ofArabia in his Capital at Riadh, and the recent invitations of this

Chief to one of the missionaries of the Arabian Gulf to visit him, anentrance has at last been secured to Interior Arabia.

Helpful Influences

Since the entrance of the British into Mesopotamia, they haveevinced a spirit of sympathy toward the activities of Christian mis-sions which has taken substantial form, particularly in the encourage-ment of missionary, industrial and agricultural education. It is ex-pected that with the restoration of peace, sixteen million acres ofMesopotamia will be irrigated. The population for this country thuslaid open to cultivation, will be drawn from the Bedouins of the

FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA 69

Interior, who will be made amenable to law and order. The Trans-

Continental Railway will soon be completed connecting the Persian

Gulf with Europe, and placing Mesopotamia on the highway to

India.

Thus in spite of wars and rumors of wars, of multiplied tempta-

tions and increased difficulties, God has seen fit to show His powerin Arabia as never before in the Mission's history. The prayers of

many years are being answered in the opening of the Inland country

to the Gospel, and a new day is opening for both Arabia and Meso-potamia.

PERSIARobert E. Speer, D.D.

Continuance of Mission WorkOutside of the Province of Azerbaijan the missionary work was

carried on uninterruptedly in Persia throughout the entire war. In

some stations such as Hamadan and Kermanshah, the antagonizingforces alternated again and again in their control of the territory.

With the exception of the work for Armenians, however, which of

course was largely broken up in such stations whenever the Turkswere in power, the missionaries in these stations went forward unin-

terruptedly in their task and the ending of the war leaves the workstronger than it has ever been and its opportunities unparalleled.

Leadership in Education

In Teheran the leadership in education has been won by the Mis-sion schools, the American College for Boys and the Iran BethelSchool for Girls. The former has now a campus of forty acres

walled in just outside the city, and three of its new buildings areerected. A fund of $250,000 has been provided for the developmentof the Girls' School into the first College for women in Persia. Thechief need now is a more adequate staff of men and women both for

the schools and for the mission hospital. The goodwill of the

people, their confidence in the missionaries and their enterprise andthe support of the foreign community were won long ago. In Reshtand Hamadan the schools and the hospitals have laid their founda-tions securely and though they need money, need life even more.

Opportunities

Two great opportunities have opened in Persia in the North-east and in the Southwest. In the Northeast, Meshed is the mostimportant city, the great shrine city of Persia, visited annually bythousands of pilgrims, not only from Persia but from Afghanistanand Central Asia. The foundations of a strong station have beenlaid. The mission force has been doubled the past year, and thefund well begun which is to provide adequate hospitals and schools.

Persia. Limited monarchy. Area, about 628,000 square miles. Popula-tion, about 9,500,000. Of these, 8,500,000 are Mohammedans of the Shi'ah sectand 850,000 of the Sunni sect, 10,000 are Parsis, 40,000 Jews, 50,000 Ar-menians and 30,000 Nestorians.

70 FORMER TURKISH EMPIRE AND PERSIA

Patients from a score of nationalities come to the hospital annuallyand in many a village in Western Afghanistan which sent its blindor its lame to the mission hospital in Meshed to return with eyesightand health, a welcome is awaiting the evangelists whenever thepolitical prohibition of mission work in Afghanistan is relaxed. InSouthwestern Persia the relief work conducted by the missionariesin connection with the incoming of the British Army and the build-ing of roads has opened new access to the Kurdish tribes and to thehitherto unreached people of Luristan.

Azerbaijan

The section of Persia which has been most deeply affected by thewar has been Azerbaijan. No nation in the world suffered morethrough the war than the Nestorians or Assyrians in the Urumia andSalmas plains. Between one-half and two-thirds of the entire popu-lation has been wiped out by pestilence, famine and massacre. Thepitiful remnants of the Assyrians are now at Bakuba, north of Bag-dad, and in Tabriz, and Hamadan, awaiting their repatriation in their

old homes. The Mission station in Urumia, the oldest and strongestof all the stations in Persia, has been completely wiped out. TheChristian villages have been destroyed, and after the last massacreof the Christians in May, 1919, disorder still prevailed everywherebetween the Persian Moslems and the Kurds. The capture ofTabriz by Turkey also near the end of the war led to the withdrawalof most of the Tabriz missionaries, and the imprisonment of thosewho remained. The Urumia and Tabriz Missionaries alike have all

now returned to Tabriz and are awaiting the reestablishment of

order through the province.

Persia's Future

The situation of Persia throughout the war was anomalous. Thesympathies of the country were strongly pro-German and Germaninfluences were powerful until the very close. Persian territory wasfought over by Russian, Turkish, and British forces, and somesections of the country passed from one political authority to an-

other five or six times. At the close of the war a new treaty wasannounced between Great Britain and Persia, providing for a British

loan and the reorganization of the army and finances with British

advisers, the treaty stipulating further the maintenance of Persia's

complete independence. Economically, Persia has suffered keenly.

Foreign trade was practically annihilated by the war, and famineand fighting caused vast loss of life, the death of many of the

animals, the only means of transport in Persia, the destruction of the

vineyards and the villages, and the general disintegration of the

economic life of the land. On the other hand, good roads havebeen built as part of the military operations, automobiles are comingin, which in time will replace the depleted stock of animals, and withorder and financial economy there is no reason why the people ofPersia, so intelligent and so desirous of progress, should not find

the way of national prosperity.

EGYPT 71

EGYPTRev. James G. Hunt, D.D.

The "Revolution"

The outstanding event of the year in Egypt was the nationalistic

uprising that took place in March and April. Nothing comparable in

extent and effect has occurred since the Arabi rebellion in 1882.

As ever Egypt is the land of paradox. Summoned by their Caliph

in 1914 to enter upon a Holy War, an invading army^ of their

coreligionists at their gates, their own Khedive having joined withthe Turks, their British rulers in almost daily expectation of anoutbreak, through the long years of the war all remains quiet.

Moslem Egypt sips her coffee, shrugs her shoulders and goes herusual way. Then the war ended, the power of their Caliphate

shattered, the British Protectorate firmly seated, the country enjoy-ing a large measure of material prosperity,—a "revolution" breaksout.

Its Meaning

Interpretation in such a case is not easy. Despite outward calmthe heart of Egypt shared the world's unrest; the fires of nationalismthat blazed so wildly a few years since had not died out—they onlyslumbered ; the call for the "self-determination of peoples" meantto them that their Day had come; in the depletion of the British

official force by the demands of the war, certain leaders found their

opportunity to sow seeds of discontent; high prices and the com-pulsory service of the Labor Corps and other real or fancied griev-ances furnished the congenial soil. So when their spokesmen werenot given ready passports to present their cause at the Peace- Con-ference, the steps were easy and rapid to a patriotic frenzy that soonforgot all restraint. Patriotism speedily degenerated into anarchyand barbarism, and had to be met by stern measures.

In varying measure these conditions prevailed through the wholelength of the land. Rioting, looting and murdering were reportedfrom every direction. For a few fearful weeks Egypt was an activevolcano. Railway and telegraphic communications everywhere werebroken. Life and property everywhere were in jeopardy. Then theabortive revolution subsided almost as suddenly as it had begun.

Effect on Mission WorkWhat of the effect of it all upon mission work? For a time all

work was practically suspended. The authorities ordered all mis-sionaries in the interior to Cairo and brought them in some cases

Egypt. British Protectorate. Area, about 350,000 square miles. (The culti-vated and settled area comprises only 12,226 square miles of this.) Population,12,710,120. Of these, according to the census of 1907, 10,366,826 were Moham-medans, 706,322 Copts, 38,635 Jews, 12,736 Protestants, 57,744 Roman Catholics,76,953 Greek Orthodox, and 2j,gz7 Eastern Christians.

under an armed guard. Though running the gauntlet of manyperils, no missionary lives were lost and no mission propertydestroyed. The summer vacation period was near at hand. Thatpast, all departments of work reopened under virtually normalconditions. Churches, schools and hospitals are full and access to

the people unhampered.In the early stages of the uprising, Moslem and Christian frater-

nized to an unprecedented extent. Each visited the other's place ofworship. All else was subordinated to the sentiment of nationalunity. Large numbers of Moslems thus heard the gospel proclaimedfor the first time. For in the evangelical churches at least, gospelrather than patriotic themes were the rule. Xot a few Christianszealously made use of their new opportunity to explain their Bookand its message. While it is to be feared that later developmentstended to accentuate afresh the dividing lines, we may hope that

even the temporary banishment of barriers gave opportunity for theSpirit of God to lift the veil and reveal a vision that will not fade.

And it is to be hoped that the disillusioned Christians may now see

more clearly that not "Egypt for the Egyptians" but "Egypt for

Christ" is their nation's hope.

The Future

This unexpected course of events must make us diffident in anyattempt to forecast the immediate future. Where we thought all

doors had opened, we may find that for the time some have closedmore tightly. Broken power and disappointed hopes, instead of pro-ducing a humbled, chastened state of mind, ready for the Christianmessage, may but create bitterness and resentment. Yet if we mayjudge by the precedents of the past, the former is more likely to

prove the case. The years that followed the quelling of the A*rabi

insurrection saw great numbers of Moslem inquirers, and baptismsfor the first time became frequent. Forces equal to the opportunity,

faithfulness, wisdom, tact and love in unstinted measure, and anoutpouring of power from on high are the need of the hour.

Continued Unrest

As emphasizing the uncertainties of the situation and the fact that

the Egyptian question is not yet settled should be mentioned theepidemic of strikes which broke out a few months after the sub-sidence of the uprising. It is largely attributable to the abnormalrise in the cost of living producing a spirit of deep discontent. Butthe resort to this western weapon is a disquieting symptom and calls

for skillful treatment on the part of both political and spiritual

leaders.

The Labor Corps

While the drafting of a Labor Corps to the number of several

hundred thousand for work behind the lines in Palestine andEurope was the cause of much fear and unrest among the peasantry,it is likely to have far-reaching after effects in widening the horizon,

THE ANGLO-EGYPTIAN SUDAN 73

implanting new ideas in the minds of the common people and arous-ing a wholesome discontent with age-long conditions. All this will

make for greater interest and openness of mind toward the gospel

message.Itinerating Agencies

Except for the weeks mentioned above, all departments of missioneffort, church, school, press, hospital and hareem and boat work,have gone on as usual. Of these, indeed, only the schools and thework on the boats suffered serious interruption. For this last namedagency, Egypt with its long narrow river valley in which all the

life is centered, furnishes unique opportunities. Two mission boatsare operating south of Cairo and one in the Delta. A mission car

built for the tracks of the Agricultural Railway is also in use in thelatter region. These itinerating agencies have demonstrated the fact

of the open door and brought the word of life to hitherto untouchedmasses.

The Native Protestant Church

The native Protestant Church, through the stimulus of a vigorousLaymen's Movement, is rapidly approaching complete self-support.

Steps have been taken looking toward the assuming by the Churchof the responsibility for training her own workers in a well-equippedtheological seminary. This Church like so many others sufferedgreatly in her membership from the ravages of influenza. TheCoptic Church in Upper Egypt is showing increasing willingness to

open its doors to Protestant missionaries and pastors.

Survey of the Field

The American Mission has completed a careful survey of the por-tion of the field for which it is responsible with a view to its adequateoccupation, and already the increase of forces and equipment called

foris being provided. The expected opening of the new ChristianUniversity in Cairo during the coming year will mean a large acces-sion of strength to the Christian forces in that strategic center.

Peace in the Midst of WarThis part of the world, with the exception of the Darfur province,

felt but little the disturbance of the war. While the rest of theworld was in convulsion, peace and quiet reigned in this land thatnot so long ago was shaking with the terrors of Mahdiism. Hencethe coming of peace has made less change here than elsewhere.

Material Progress

The reconstruction of a country that had been reduced to chaosis naturally a slow work. But it has gone steadily on. The foreigntrade has grown from nothing to $40,500,000 in 1918, almost equallydivided between imports and exports. Railways are being extendedand large irrigation plans are being pushed forward. Wages haverapidly increased and a state of prosperity exists.

Missionary Cooperation and Expansion

The missionaries have won the respect and good will of all classes.

There is such close cooperation among the evangelical societies

working in this field that all overlapping is avoided. The AmericanMission has made a thorough survey of the needs of its territory

and is planning a large advance. Even yet, however, it is impossibleaccurately to forecast the shifting of the centers of population so as

to fix upon settled plans of operation.In the Northern Sudan, the chief drawback is in the Government

restrictions still in force concerning work for Moslems. But amongthe non-Moslem tribes to the south, the missions suffer no such em-barrassment and are meeting with a warm response.

NEGRO AFRICARev. John M. Springer

The past third of a century has seen revolutionary changes in

Negro Africa, particularly of an industrial nature. Political changeshave been less notable, but important, and religious progress, whilemarked, has lagged behind both these other lines of activity offoreigners entering Central Africa.

A view of the situation of the native Negro African restricted to

the present day might well give great concern, if not discouragement.But when the advance of a generation is noted, there is every reasonfor hopefulness for his future welfare and opportunities.

With the considerable contribution that Africa as a whole made to

the war, a contribution shared in by practically every section, involv-

ing in the aggregate a million native men, soldiers, labor corps,

carriers, etc., the people of this continent have earned the right to a

new consideration in the councils of nations.

Important to remember, also, is the awakening and impulse that

has come in this connection to practically every tribe, the broadened

There are about 12,000 American Liberians, and"about 50,000 of the coast negroes (including the Liberians proper), may beconsidered civilized. All such use English as their language, and are Christianin religion." Of the interior tribes, most are Animists, but one large tribe (theMandingoes) is Mohammedan.

NEGRO AFRICA 75

horizon, the knowledge of the democratic principles and of the

fundamental human rights that have been stressed.

Desires and ambitions have been stirred, purposes formed to ac-

quire education for self or for children and determination to secure

greater industrial skill and to win larger wages. Advances andchanges among the native Africans are proceeding more rapidly,

doubtless, than among any similar backward people in the past. Thisis inevitable with the extensive exploitation of the continent that is

proceeding at such a rapid rate, and in which are employed forces

and methods of the most advanced nations of Europe and America.

Industrial Conditions

Half a century ago Africa had scarcely been touched by foreigninfluences. There were comparatively few industries and the de-

mand was almost entirely for unskilled labor—for house service

chiefly, and also to use the pick and shovel.

Today the demand for native labor is large and urgent and in

addition to the need for manyfold more unskilled laborers thereis also a demand for brick makers, masons, carpenters, cabinetmakers, engine drivers, foremen, clerks, telegraphers, bookkeepers,storekeepers, stenographers, teachers, and superintendents of nativelabor.

The graduates of Mission schools are in great demand. In thetechnical schools (which are all too few) the problem is to keep thepupil long enough to finish his training as he is constantly beingtempted to leave and accept the high wages offered to him for whattraining he already has.

Demand for Native Labor

The labor supply near the industrial centers is utterly inadequateto meet the demands, and labor recruiting bureaus go afield to tribes

a thousand to two thousand miles distant. The result is that repre-sentatives of the various tribes widely separated over Central Africamingle and become acquainted in these congested industrial centerswhere new conditions and multiplied temptations confront them.Crucially important is it that evangelical Christianity functionstrongly in all these centers.

It is generally recognized that the native labor of Africa is in-

adequate to meet the demands of the industrial program. Constantlythere is mooted the question of introducing Asiatics. But past ex-periments in this line have not given satisfactory results.

Another factor affecting the labor supply for European-controlledindustries is the new policy of encouraging natives to accept or

secure individual holdings of land for the cultivation of oil-bearing,

cotton and other crops, as in Nigeria and in Natal. In the BelgianCongo many native truck gardeners are securing individual holdings.

Native Labor Propaganda

Johannesburg is the emporium, the labor melting pot for all SouthAfrica. With the extension of the railway and other steam routes,

the labor agents are sending far afield to the north, to Rhodesia,Nyasaland, and along the east coast for laborers.

Representatives of the labor organizations in Europe and Americahave visited the Rand and have begun an active agitation among the

native laborers instructing them in such agencies as strikes, boycotts,

passive resistance, and other means for securing their rights anddesires. Primarily these men had only in mind the using of thenative to gain advantages for the white laborers, but they havesharpened a tool that is proving to be double-edged. The discontentwhich has been fomented by unscrupulous white men and by thoseof distorted ideas, is a serious factor in future relationship of theraces.

The Katanga Mineral Fields

The Katanga mineral fields in the Belgian Congo are to CentralAfrica what the Rand is to South Africa. To work the vastdeposits of copper, tin, coal and other minerals native laborers mustbe sought for in every tribe from ocean to ocean and from the

Congo and Zambesi valleys. Inasmuch as there is a common re-

cruiting ground of the two industrial centers, that in Rhodesia andNyasaland, and since laborers go first to one field and later to theother, the ideas that are current on the Rand are becoming knownin the Katanga. These industrial operations and the linking up andthe extension of the transportation systems are welding Negro Africainto a oneness unknown and undreamed of heretofore.

Race Consciousness

The war has developed a strong race consciousness on the partof the negroes of the world which is shared by many in various parts

of Africa. In 1918 or early 1919, there was organized in London a

club of "Africans and Afro-Americans." The objects of the club,

as set forth at a banquet early in 1919, were right and just enough,principles of- race equality—not social equality, for social equality

does not exist within any given race or nation, much less can it beforced or legislated between races—but equal opportunities in-

dustrially and politically according to ability and merit.

Political Outlook

Politically the natives of Negro Africa have suffered various

vicissitudes in the past generation. Fortunately there is an awakenedconscience among the nations which bids fair to see that, in the

future, justice is done them. The Negro African has so far to go,

and has so many lessons to learn in self-government and in dele-

gated representative government that he is far from being in a

position independently to compete with the advanced nations of the

world, or even to take any large share in the government of his owncountry for some time to come.Any expression of self determination must be taken in a very

different way from what it would be among more advanced peoples.

It is quite certain however that the tribes are quite capable of telling

what they want and what they do not want.

Missionary Occupation

At present many sections of Africa are congested by over-lapping

missionary agencies while vast areas remain untouched or inade-

quately occupied.In all the interdenominational Conferences which have been

organized in different parts of the continent, the sentiment ofcomity has been increasingly strong. The conviction is very strongthat the time has come for a re-consideration of the fields and a re-

adjustment of forces, somewhat such as has been already put into

operation in Mexico.The agencies of industry and European governments are touching

nearly every village and individual in the Continent while the mis-sionary agencies have scarcely touched ten per cent of the entire

population.

The extra pressure on the mission staffs of practically all societies

as a result of the war is being only very slowly relieved. Men in all

branches of mission work were called away to war service as chap-lains, interpreters, doctors, etc. These as well*as those who remainedby their work were in need of furloughs as demobilization was ac-complished. Many were unable, particularly in the latter years ofthe war, to journey from the home countries to the mission fields,

especially women. The war time regulations of the British, re-

quiring permits for all entering the various colonies, has delayedmany, and the shortage of accommodations on the few boats in

passenger service is holding up old and new missionaries for prac-tically all the fields.

The Native Church

Very generally throughout Negro Africa in recent years there has

78 NEGRO AFRICA

been instruction and pressure for larger contributions by churchmembers, to which there has been good response ; the war has soaffected mission finance that greater burdens needed of necessity to

be borne by the native congregations ; the standard of membershiphas been raised, quite as often at the instance of the native churchitself, with accompanying pruning of membership; and generalresponsibility by each church member in propagating the gospel hasbeen urged and readily accepted ; all of these factors have contributedmore or less to promoting an aggressive evangelistic spirit and activity

which has resulted in carrying forward notable revivals and massmovements and in initiating new movements of the same kind.

The very success of the work has added overwhelming burdenson mission staffs already overtaxed. A saving factor has been theloyalty of the native helpers and ministry.

Practically every mission can furnish instances of young menturning aside from offers of high wages in industry to labor at a lowstipend in school and church, and there are many instances ofevangelists, in times when all funds failed or. were very low, goingwith little or nothing to teach and to evangelize.

The value of industrial work in the formation of character andin training for service of evangelists and teachers as well as ofothers is being stressed quite generally.

Bible Societies

From nearly every mission comes word of progress in giving theWord to the people in their own tongue. In the new missions a first

task is Bible translation, together with production of hymn books,catechism, etc. In the older missions the endeavor is to supply theentire New Testament, or the entire Bible, first in an initial andthen a revised translation.

The three principal Bible Societies stand ready to put through thepress and to make available such portions as are ready for publica-

tion

The American Bible Society has on the press the revised ZuluBible, a most important publication as it is understandable by several

closely related language groups. This Society serves at least a

dozen tribes in Africa, and reports sending out approximately 20,000portions or copies in the last year.

The British and Foreign Bible Society reports the completion ofthe Bible in Yoruba language (Nigeria) and of portions in two newlanguages, Jukun and Zande, and of portions in Lunda of Kalunda(Chindembwe) in 1918. This Society published the entire Bible in

into the Tonga.John's Gospel was published in the Kikuyu language, and the first

three Gospels in Chinamwanga, all for the first time.

The Influenza

The pandemic of "flu" swept over every part of the continent,

taking a heavy toll. The scarcity of medical aid left the mass ofthe natives helpless. The ignorance of the natives as to propercare of pneumonia patients rendered them particularly susceptible to

the disease. In some cases whole villages were wiped out. It is

estimated that an eighth of the native population of the BelgianCongo succumbed.The mission staffs as a rule were affected only lightly, usually

because of preventative measures carefully observed. The death ofonly two missionaries has come to our knowledge.At many stations the missionaries applied the preventative

measures to the people of their station, and these, observing the in-

structions and also living under better conditions than the village

natives, as well as having blankets, were affected lightly. This hascaught the attention of the heathen, who have remarked on the com-parative exemption of the Christian communities. Confidence in

witch doctors has been greatly lessened, making a particularly fine

opportunity for introducing medical work.However, in strange contrast many missions report that among the

natives who did succumb to the "flu" were some of their best andmost efficient native workers and pastors.

Smallpox is reported as raging severely in many parts of Africa,and that the mortality was unusually high. The scarcity of medicalmissions or of medical help of any kind for the larger part of NegroAfrica and of the great need of these is emphasized by these sadconditions.

Missionary Leadership Needed

There is very heavy loss and wastage of native life throughoutthe continent arising from infant mortality, ignorance of natural andproper treatment of disease, from superstition, from alcohol, im-ported and locally brewed, from new dangers arising from un-familiar industrialism and civilization, and from other causes. Much

of this is preventable, and is greatly lessened where Christianmissions have functioned, as in Basutoland and Uganda, limited as

has been the scope of missions even in these favored provinces.Under favorable conditions native populations have doubled in ageneration, but it is doubtful if the total negro population of Africais increasing in the aggregate, so many, so varied and so strong arethe forces operating adversely at the present time.

Industry and the various governments greatly need and desire

an increased population. Both of these in some of the colonies

need evidence and then pressure and leadership to introduce correc-

tive measures and better conditions. Christian education and medicalservice is needed from the church as well as the leadership in con-vincing these other factors. All which bespeaks the necessity for agreatly increased force, and for missionaries of the highest order.

Railroad Construction

There is ahead a large program of railroad construction, involvingall parts of Africa, and aggregating tens of thousands of miles.

Several of these enterprises are being put into operation at once.

The usual force employed in the construction of a line of railroadis from a hundred to two hundred white men and two thousand to

five thousand or more natives gathered from tribes for hundreds ofmiles on either side.

In no case that the writer has heard of has a Christian workeraccompanied any one of the scores of such groups that have built

the more than 20,000 miles of railway now in operation in Africa.Moral and religious conditions on railroad construction have beenworse than can be imagined. Natives have returned to their homeswith little to relate of the white man's life and doings except his

drunkenness, his gambling, his immorality, and with his profanitywell learned.

A very crucial opportunity has been lost in the past to shepherdand help the white men and to teach and evangelize the natives.

Will not evangelical Christianity henceforth provide a mobile corpsto accompany every such construction group and thus capitalize oneof the best of chances to serve and to save, as well as to give afavorable impression to the natives of some factors at least con-nected with the incoming forces.

Missionary Control of Primary Education

With few exceptions practically all the primary education ofnatives in Negro Africa has been given by missionary agencies. It is

the British custom to subsidize mission schools, Protestant and

Portuguese East Africa. Consists of three Portuguese territories, theProvince of Mozambique (area, 295,000 square miles), the Companhia deMocambique (59,840 square miles), and the Companhia de Nyassa (73,292square miles). The two latter are under trading companies. Total area,

426,712 square miles, population, 3,120,000. The prevailing religion is Animism.

WEST AFRICA fe81

Catholic alike, on the basis of equipment, grade of work done, andattendance.

Several of the governments, notably Natal in the Union of SouthAfrica' and the Belgian Congo, are considering taking over, or estab-

lishing general primary education as a governmental function. TheFrench have already initiated this policy in part.

As this change occurs it will take from the missions one of their

most potential opportunities for influencing the tribes and developingcharacter. It will mean that the methods of work will need to bechanged and other phases stressed. It will make the religious educa-tion .to center more in the home, the church and in hostels at institu-

tions of learning.

WEST AFRICAThe marked industrial development and prosperity all along the

west coast of the past few years has led to the building of roads andof railways back to the interior. All this is arousing the people to

desire something new in education and in religion. Many heathenchiefs have been sending to the mission stations asking for teachersand evangelists. There never has been a more favorable time for

Christianity to extend its work.

Mohammedanism

The advance and aggression of Mohammedanism all along thecoast is the outstanding fact and the critical situation of the presenttime. Moslems from the interior and from the French Sudan seemto be organized for an aggressive propaganda in a most definite way.Teachers supplied with funds are appearing in the coast villages andopening and conducting schools among the raw heathen, buildingmosques and otherwise taking advantage of the awakened conditionof the natives and their desire for new and better things.

Many Mohammedan traders financed by European houses gofreely among the Pagan peoples and into districts of the variouscolonies, where, before European governments arrived, they wouldhave been killed. They preach Islam while they trade. The Moham-medans are meeting somewhat of a check in their school work in

the French territories, inasmuch as the French Government is for-bidding the use of the Arabic language as well as of any languageexcept French in the schools.

In Northern Nigeria, 19,073 Mohammedan schools are reported,with an attendance of 143,312. Of Christian mission schools twenty-nine are reported with an enrollment of six hundred and four pupils.

Liberia

In Liberia up to the present time the various missionary societies

have not come together in an effective cooperation to secure greaterresults, but there is a definite tendency in that direction. Thisrepublic is, if anything, overchurched near the coast, but each society

is understaffed for the effective occupation of the coast region andparticularly for the aggressive advance into the interior.

A start has been made recently in establishing medical work bythe Protestant Episcopalians, who have the only hospital in Liberia,

and a dispensary at another point.

One report states

:

"Liberia has no social, race or labor problems or disturbances.Her troubles have all been financial and the encroachments of thepowerful neighboring colonies on her borders."

Nigeria

So far as Southern Nigeria is concerned the situation is entirely

favorable to Christian missions, for the Governor-general is onrecord as saying, "I hold out every encouragement to establish mis-sions in Pagan centers."

The evidence is increasingly clear that there is urgent need that

a commission early be appointed representing American, British andother Foreign boards to devise ways and means by which theadvance of Mohammedanism can be stayed.

That war-time prohibition in Nigeria has a chance of becomingpermanent is seen from the fact that the Secretary of State for thecolonies had announced in the House of Commons "that he had in-

formed the governments of British West Africa colonies that theimportation into those colonies of all spirits should be prohibited for

the present, save under licenses issued by the colonial governmentand based on the imports for 1918, but that licenses are not to begranted for the importation of 'trade spirits.' " The commentfollows that the trade in gin in West Africa is "now coming to anend so far as Englishmen are concerned."

It would be a very great gain for every one concerned, except for

the liquor interests, if in the other portions of Africa, not previouslyprotected, prohibition of all imported liquors at least could becomeeffective. A united drive by all missionary agencies would be veryeffective in promoting and hastening this consummation.

requirements.In caring for the German Mission stations in the Cameroun, the

shared, with the final adjustments still pending. The return of the

German missionaries to their former work would seem to be alto-

gether inexpedient.

Decided difficulties seem to be encountered by mission^ societies

purposing to enter French territory. A group of American mis-

sionaries intending to open work in the Ubangi-Shari district havewaited for two years at Brazzaville for the necessary permission.

There is hopefulness of soon obtaining this permission. The FrenchCongo is a most important sector to occupy in the staying of the

advance of Mohammedanism which is aggressively pressing downfrom the North.Besides the group mentioned above, four regular missionary so-

cieties are planning to extend their work into this region at the

earliest favorable moment.

The Belgian Congo

The missionary conference of 191*8, attended by seventy-three mis-sionaries representing nine societies, was a gathering of a high order.

It faced the problems of missionary work in this colony in a mostefficient way and appointed a continuation committee to carry into

effect its findings and policies.

A careful study of the occupation of this field revealed that the

heart of the colony only is at all well occupied. The outer rim, of

about three hundred miles in width, particularly on the East andNorth, is almost untouched. One notable break in the rim is onthe northeast, where the Africa Inland Mission has established itself

in force, with headquarters at Aba, from which also the work of this

same society in British East Africa and the former German EastAfrica will be administered. The Heart of Africa Mission occupiesterritory in the same region.

It was stated at the conference that one hundred tribes of theCongo are as yet untouched by the Gospel.The next session of this Conference of Protestant Missionary

Societies in the Congo will be held in 1921, either at Brazzaville or at

Bolenge.

Rhodesia (including Southern Rhodesia and Northern Rhodesia). Underthe administration of the British South Africa Company. Area, about 440,000square miles, population (estimated), 1,654,000 natives, and about 30,000Europeans. Prevailing religion, Animism.

84 EAST AFRICA

A strong deputation representing the Baptist Missionary Society(English) visited the Congo during the year, as did also a deputa-tion of the Methodist Episcopal Church. All of the other longestablished missions have previously been visited by deputations.This should put all the societies in a position to consider efficiently

the problems of readjustment and of advance.

EAST AFRICAA famine in parts of British East Africa followed the epidemic

of "flu" and smallpox. Relief of distressing conditions was suppliedby the government officials and missionaries working in cooperation.

MohammedansThe entire east coast down as far as the Zambesi is one of the

storm centers, a sector of active advance by the Mohammedans.The war furnished great opportunities for propaganda, which wereaggressively improved by the Moslems, particularly in connectionwith the military operations. The Christian forces were in evidencein only a few places.

German Mission WorkIn caring for the German Protestant Missions in former German

East Africa, the Africa Inland Mission (an American interdenom-inational society) has been requested by the Government to assumethe responsibility for certain of these. A possible solution for thestations in the districts assigned to Belgium by the Peace Conferenceis for the Belgian Protestants to occupy this territory. Before thewar there were 50,000 Protestants in Belgium, and missionariesrepresenting a portion of these were on the way in August, 1914, to

open work in the Congo.The Africa Inland Mission was able greatly to increase its staff

during the war period, having now a hundred and sixty missionariesin East Africa and the Congo.

Opposition to Mission WorkPortions of Portuguese East Africa, notably those under the

Mozambique Company, are practically closed to missionary work.This chartered company represents principally British and Frenchcapital. Portuguese are employed in the provinces. This situation

calls for early attention.

SOUTH AFRICA

The "Sub-Continent" having had a much earlier and a more generaloccupation by Europeans, is far ahead of the rest of Negro Africain every respect. A million and a quarter Europeans within theUnion of South Africa, the majority of them either born in the

country or permanently settled there, aim to make this a "White

SOUTH AFRICA 85

man's country-" There must be taken into consideration at the

same time nearly five million Africans and colored people (mixedblood) besides 115,701 East Indians and 45,841 Mohammedans,mostly Malay and other Asiatics. Truly South Africa has her full

share of political, industrial, social and religious problems.The application of the Gospel t© social conditions and to racial

differences and problems, in a sane and right way by members ofall races and groups, is the great need, and holds out the onlypromise of solution to these very acute problems, which perhaps aremore acute and complex in South Africa than anywhere else.

Religious Situation of Europeans

While practically all of the white population of South Africa is

returned in statistics as Christian, it is only the same as reportingAmerica or any European country as Christian, or somewhat less so.

Several of the principal Protestant denominations are strongly repre-sented either by independent or by affiliated Conferences, Synods orsimilar groups. These bodies carry on a more or less aggressivework, as compared with churches in other countries, but all feel theneed of greatly enlarged activities and programs. Very definite

expressions have been made of desire for a closely united and com-mon program on behalf of evangelical Christianity throughout theUnion.

Temperance

The measure promoted on behalf of the vine growers of SouthAfrica to permit selling to natives of wines and liquors up to tenper cent strength of alcohol has been defeated for the time at least.

Leaders of native thought are beginning to resent race or class

legislation. These same leaders realize the evils of alcoholic liquorsand approve of prohibition, but they maintain that it should beprohibition for all.

The illicit liquor selling to natives, which is such a scandal andproblem at Johannesburg, is very difficult to suppress as long as thereis abundance of all sorts of liquors in the country for Europeans.Degenerate whites and crafty colored persons will sell it to thenatives. Many Europeans are beginning to agree that total prohibi-tion is the only solution. Many of the recurring race and class prob-lems and difficulties would disappear with alcohol.

Temperance sentiment is gaining and progress has been made toconvince the vine growers that there is fully as profitable a marketfor their produce in other forms as in alcohol.

American temperance workers have responded to join in a cam-paign beginning October, 1919. Local option is the means by which-the leaders expect to make their gains.

Changing Attitude of Europeans Toward Mission WorkThe past two decades have seen a great reversal of opinion, on the

part of the general European public, regarding the advisability of

86 SOUTH AFRICA

education at all for the natives and the value of mission work in

general.

The findings of the imperial Native Affairs Commission of 1903,and similar investigations, which strongly commended education andmission work, the attitude of the natives in the Zulu rebellion of

1906, the good account given of themselves by graduates of missionschools ; these and other factors have utterly changed the attitude ofthe thoughtful men in government and in commerce.

The Johannesburg Gold Mines

In this melting pot of the native tribes of South Africa, race con-sciousness and independence of action is growing rapidly. Untilwithin a few years the principal activity of the natives on a Sundaywas participation in a local compound dance. Now each Sundaythere is a special dance in a designated compound to which nativesassemble from compounds twenty miles or more distant. Teams vie

with each other in performance, each team being backed by its

crowd. Compound colors, banners, streamers and yells are much in

evidence, as at a football game.Besides this development of native sport the natives have imitated

the white man in forming football, tennis, cricket and other athletic

clubs, with contests, prizes, etc. Most of these games are held onSunday, likewise an imitation of white men.The sixty or more Ethiopian (independent native or negro) Church

organizations at present existing throughout South Africa in themajority of cases originated here on the mineral fields.

Secret Societies, a notable one called Ninevahites, the members ofwhich engage to aid each other in crimes, is very strong here.

Compound WorkTwo decades ago it was with great difficulty that missionaries

obtained access to the mine compounds to preach to the native

miners ; now practically every compound is open to them, and halls

and school rooms are, by the mines in many cases, put at the disposal

of the mission agents.

In connection with this compound work very much greater effi-

ciency could be obtained by a reorganization and cooperation be-tween the twenty-two societies from practically every Protestantcountry that are now working quite independently of each otheralong the Rand. No one of them has been doing an adequate andsignificant work.The American Board is greatly enlarging its work, opening social

centers, seeking to get control or give guidance in recreational andathletic activities, and otherwise functioning in the every day life ofthe natives employed in the city and on the mines. It is to be hopedthat other societies will likewise seek to serve in this larger way andthus employ these additional means of proclaiming and exemplifyingthe Gospel.

SOUTH AFRICA 87

The General Mission Conference of South Africa

The fifth session of this important conference was postponed onaccount of the war, from 1916 and is to be held in 1921. Commis-sions have been making exhaustive research on various subjects,

and will report their findings at the coming session.

The sentiment, which has been strong in the conference froin its

first session, in favor of comity and of correction of overlapping,

which is acute in parts of South Africa, is growing in strength andwould seem to bespeak readiness for some positive and radical

adjustments in the near future.

The South Africa Native College

After years of consideration and slow progress the South AfricaNative College—of real college grade—is at last a reality, and wasopened during the year. The missionary agencies, the variousprovincial governments and the native tribes of the Sub-continentare all related to the enterprise.

The site is on ground formerly a part of the Lovedale institution,

the buildings being about a mile apart.

During the first season thirty-nine students, well distributed amongthe various denominations, and from seven tribes, were in at-

tendance.Professional training will be provided at an early date. Theo-

logical training will be given by the various denominations in connec-tion with their hostels.

As a result of the revelation during the year of the lack and theneed of skilled medical advice and attention among the nativepeoples a fair proportion of the students are desiring medicaltraining.'

Government Recognition and Support

From an attitude of indifference years ago the Natal governmenthas become a heavy supporter of missionary education. AmanzimtoteInstitution (American Board) received in 1918 government grantsfor support of the teaching staff $8,000, as against $300 eighteenyears ago. One grant toward the building of a Domestic ScienceDepartment amounts to $5,000. Large support is assured for equip-ment and salaries in the greater program ahead.

Native Loyalty and Development

Fears were entertained that natives returning from the war zonesof France and East Africa would exhibit unfavorable reactions.But these fears were groundless. The Superintendent of Educationin Natal was able to say that he had "not heard of a single instanceof unbecoming conduct on the part of a returned native laborer.On the contrary, the discipline of the army and the educationthrough travel had rendered them more dutiful, more loyal, moreuseful."

88 SOUTH AFRICA

Mr. Le Roy, for eighteen years principal of Amanzimtote, the lead-ing native educational institution of Natal, reports that the war hasled the natives to discriminate between mere civilization and Christi-

anity. Mere civilization and education is not sufficient. There is

such a thing as Godless civilization which does not differ materiallyfrom a Godless heathenism. This new view has made the nativepeoples more receptive to the truth than they have been for years.

The Zulu native churches have entirely supported their ownministry for a quarter of a century. This year they took advancesteps in establishing at their own charges a minimum salary forevery pastor and evangelist, involving a twenty to forty per centincrease over former salaries, and also by appointing and providingfor the salary of a native field secretary for their churches.The natives of South Africa, many of them college trained (in

America and Great Britain), have their provincial and nationalcouncils to promote the educational, social, political and industrial

interests of their peoples. The discussions and actions are on ahigh plane, surprising to those not conversant with the abilities andattainments of natives who have had opportunities for education.

The Three Factors

Church, state and commerce, all three are operating throughoutthe continent of Africa. All three are ordained of God, each to

function in its respective sphere. The best results will follow wherethe three cooperate closely and harmoniously, all actuated by thespirit of humanity, of justice and of service.

With the accounting nations will in future be required to renderof their stewardship, under the League of Nations, the governmentsof Africa must increasingly consult the interests of the peoples,

providing so far as laws can the opportunities for security and fordevelopment. A wise, strong policy of cooperation with govern-ments pursued by the federated missionary agencies can greatly

further these ends.

Industry while inclined at first to be short-sighted and careless ofnative welfare is becoming convinced in spots that a humane policy

is best in the long run for them as well as for the natives. TheChurch as well as the state needs to be alert here to give proof, to

watch processes, correct wrongs and secure the best conditions for

the native laborers.

The Mission agencies are broadening their policies, and need to

go on and to be sure that the total normal life of the peoples is beingsymmetrically developed. The narrow conception that frowned upongovernments and industry and kept apart from them must give place

to a policy of seeking opportunities to cooperate.

To keep pace with state and commerce in all parts of Africa, the

Church needs to multiply her present force from six to ten fold.

THE PHILIPPINES 89

THE PHILIPPINESRev. P. H. J. Lerrigo, M.D.

Especial interest attaches to the Philippine situation at this time

;

first, because of the recrudescence of interest in the question ofimmediate independence, and second, because of the prominencewhich the doctrine of mandataries has taken in the peace delibera-

tions.

The Philippines as a Mandatary

The American occupation of the Philippines may fairly be consid-ered an ideal example of a mandatary accepted by a stronger in

behalf of a weaker nation. It may be taken as indicative of the wayin which mandataries as projected in the peace treaty should workout, and also as an assurance of the entire feasibility of such amandatary system. The spirit of Protestant Christendom hascrystallized in America's dealings with the Philippines. Service is

its keynote and its best fruitage is the possibility of an epoch whensimilar relationships shall obtain between great and small peoples theworld over.

Interpreting America to the Orient

The Philippines has been an experimental station for the new eraand stands as an interpreter at the door of the Orient China waspuzzled for decades by the contrast between Romanist and Prot-estant methods of missionary work within her own boundaries. Theone expressed autocracy and the other democracy. The one inter-

meddled in a multitude of lawsuits and demanded special privileges

for its adherents ; the other relied for success and protection uponthe dynamic force of its message. The Philippine experience hasshed a flood of light upon these inconsistencies for the Chinese.Four hundred years of the old Spanish regime failed to accomplishwhat two decades of a benevolent government in the spirit ofevangelical Christianity have achieved.

It is helping Japan also to interpret an episode in her own history.

The hostile reaction to Catholic propaganda closed the doors ofJapan to the world. Iyeyasu suspected that the propaganda ofSpanish and Portuguese missionaries was but the preliminary to

political aggression and the great Shogun ordered all foreign priests

expelled and all churches destroyed, while Japanese Christians werecompelled to renounce the faith. America's experience in the Philip-

pines is a striking illustration, comprehensible because occurring in

a brief time, of the contrast between that autocratic type of Christi-

anity, and the democratic Christianity which has had no small partin the modern Japanese revolution.

90 THE PHILIPPINES

The Young Men's Buddhist Association of India has sent a com-mission to the Philippines to study its educational system. Thenations of the Orient understand America and Christ better becauseof our experience in the Philippines.

Two Decades in the Philippines

The present year closes two decades of mission work in the Philip-

pines, while the American occupation has just come of age, beingnow in its twenty-first year. The limited area involved and theliberty to depart radically from old standards made it possible to

introduce reforms of the most advanced nature and in some respects

the Philippines has outpaced this country in its governmentalmethods. Postal Savings Banks were introduced there before theywere established in this country. The past year has seen the adop-tion of the budget system in insular finance, a departure whichAmerican legislators have talked of for decades and which we havenot yet succeeded in achieving. For the lack of it we have thepresent haphazard and unrelated hodge-podge of national expendi-tures.

Departmentalized Government Service

During the year covered by the last report of the Governor Gen-eral, the Jones bill has been put into effect, departmentalizing theentire Philippine service. The very titles of the departments indi-

cate the practical nature of the plan. They are as follows with their

subdivisions, or bureaus. All of them with the exception of the De-partment of Public Instruction are in charge of Filipino directors.

Department of the Interior.

Bureau of non-Christian tribes.

Executive Bureau.Bureau of Constabulary.Philippine General Hospital.

THE PHILIPPINES 91

Education in the Philippines

The Department of Public Instruction evidences perhaps better

than any other that the task undertaken in the Philippines is being

intelligently and thoroughly done. The system is based upon the

most advanced principles of educational science. It includes trades

schools and manual training in all the schools far in advance of the

average American standard. It is recognized, however, that while

the quality of the work is high, it is inadequate in extent._The

Secretary of Public Instruction, Mr. Charles E. Yeater, states in his

report that "while the Philippines possess an excellent school system,

with a trained and expert directing personnel, other facts make plain

the dark side of the picture. It is true that only one-half the

children of the islands are in the public schools and that for the

reason that schoolhouses and teachers are lacking." To meet the

situation the Philippine legislature has recently passed a bill provid-

ing for an additional sum of Pesos 30,000,000 to be made available

for the work of the department during the next five years. Thiswill supplement the present annual appropriation of Pesos 5,000,000.

Association of Government and Missionary WorkFrom the beginning of the task there has been a close association

between the work of the missionary and the Government. In the

report of F. W. Carpenter, Director of the Bureau of Non-ChristianTribes, to the Secretary of the Interior are these words : "As acoordinate factor with the Government in the work of civilization

throughout the territory within the jurisdiction of this bureau, I

cannot too strongly commend the work of Christian missions andphilanthropy."The mission schools are supplementing the work of the Depart-

ment of Public Instruction, especially in the higher branches, and that

their work is thoroughly appreciated is indicated by the followingparagraph from the last report of the Secretary of the department

:

"Every effort by any religious sect ... to establish and maintainschools should be welcome. With half the children of the countrydeprived of an opportunity to get an education there is pressingdemand not only for more public but more private schools."

The Students' Conferences

While statistics for the year are not yet available, every reportfrom the Philippines indicates that the evangelical work has beenproceeding most encouragingly. One of the interesting events ofthe year was the Students' Conference held at Baguio during theChristmas holidays. One hundred and twenty-five young men werein attendance as delegates. The year was marked also by the organ-ization of the first women students' conference. These gatheringswill parallel the work of the Students' Conferences in America andare already stimulating young people to give their lives to missionaryservice. Rev. W. O. Valentine of Occidental Negros reports twenty

92 THE PHILIPPINES

men in his field ready to enter the ministry. At Camp Claudio athousand young men are in Bible classes.

The Christian Service League

As an outgrowth of the student gatherings the Christian ServiceLeague was inaugurated. It has for its primary object "the promo-tion of vital Christianity in the lives of the young men and womenof the Islands." Branches of the League are being formed through-out the archipelago. It has undertaken as one of its first tasks a

vigorous campaign against the cockpit and in favor of prohibition.

There is before the Philippine legislature a measure to the sameeffect as the prohibitory amendment recently adopted by Congress.The Christian Service League has addressed the Philippine senators

and representatives in an open letter supporting Senor Altavas' bill

to limit the continuance of the Cockpit to two years. Already someresults are manifest. Gambling among high officials is being vigor-ously attacked, and certain municipal presidents have been separatedfrom their office for this offense.

Net Results to Date

The American occupation of the Philippines is, in some sense,

entirely a missionary task, for it was conceived and has been carried

out in an altruistic spirit. The net results of Government and mis-sionary work alike are a peaceful but complete revolution of the

Archipelago. Up to the American occupation the Philippines werein a condition of arrested development. The Spaniards brought amedieval civilization four hundred years ago and the atmosphereof the middle ages still prevailed. The walled city of Manilagraphically pictured its old-world character. Since the Americanoccupation it has been swept into the current of modern progress.This is illustrated by the new commerce. The last report of theGovernor General shows a year of extraordinary prosperity. Thetotal trade amounts to Pesos 322,802,674; the exports being 191,-

208,613, making a balance of trade in favor of the Philippinesamounting to 59,614,552. The money in circulation was Pesos102,580,313. The commerce with the United States includes two-thirds of the exports and three-fifths of the imports. The worldis getting acquainted with the Philippines and they with the world.Inward-bound passengers were 19,635, outward-bound 16,293.

A Curious Anachronism

Remnants of the old medievalism are still found. At Loma Ceme-tery this year the "penitentes" were practised by scores of men onGood Friday. Stripped to the waist they lacerated themselves until

the blood streamed down their backs ; some hacked themselves withpieces of glass and others flagellated themselves with scourges madeof cords and small pieces of bamboo. Public sentiment is increasing,however, against such absurdities.

THE PHILIPPINES 93

The Key to the Future

The results of the evangelical work in the islands are seen notonly in the growth of many large and vigorous Protestant churchesand communities, but also in the leavening of public opinion far

beyond what might be expected if the numerical strength only ofProtestantism were taken into account. There must be a vital faith

in Christ as personal Lord and Master on the part of increasingnumbers of the people if reforms are to be lasting, and this is beingbrought about by the work of the missions. The young people ofthe schools and churches are carrying their enlightened ideas into

every walk of life. The growth of a middle class may be discerned.

Opportunities as artisans, railway employees, in connection withbusiness houses, and the new agriculture are appealing especially to

the Christian young men and women.

The Work Still Incomplete

It is apparent that the work is still incomplete and the missionsmust concern themselves in the coming days with reenforcing theeducational situation, especially in its higher branches, and must placeredoubled emphasis upon cooperation with the Filipinos themselvesin building up a vigorous native church to be the moral backbone ofthe country. The missionary to the Philippines should be a studentof world movements. He should study the Government reports andpresent to his young people the opportunity of engaging in publicwork with the aim of carrying the spirit of Christ into the affairs ofthe Islands.

GENERAL ARTICLES

MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCHRev. Joseph F. McGlinchey, D.D.*

The Foreign Mission work of the Catholic Church began in the

year 30 A. D., when Jesus Christ, the Son of God, its founder andfirst missionary, preached His own Gospel and organized the first

Christian Seminary, whose students, taught and ordained to the

Priesthood by Him, were commanded to go and "Teach all nations,"

to "Preach the Gospel to every creature." For twenty centuries the

successors of Christ and His little band of twelve missionaries havepreached His doctrine, guided by the Holy Spirit and directed bythe Pope, the successor of St. Peter, the Prince of the Apostles andthe Visible Head of the Church.We may divide this long Apostolate of 2,000 years into three

distinct periods : I. The Apostolic Epoch, which covers the first

three centuries of the Church, and which ended with the cessation

of the early persecutions in the reign of Constantine ; II. The Epochof Union and Protectorate, during which Christian Princes lent

their assistance, both material and moral, to the spreading of theFaith; and III. The Modern or Popular Epoch, which began after

the Revolution of the Eighteenth Century, when the Church, againpersecuted and despoiled of her goods, depended for her supportupon the charity of the faithful. It is the purpose of this Chapterto give a brief account of the condition of the Apostolate of theCatholic Church to the heathens at the present day.

The Missionaries

Among the first questions asked by those seeking informationabout the conversion of the pagan is "How many foreign mission-aries are there?" Since this chapter has to do with the missionarywork of the Catholic Church all references in it are to Catholicmissionaries. Let us first determine what we understand by thewords foreign missionary, for statistics are sometimes misleading.This is especially true if they be comparative. It may easily happenthat estimates are compiled from quite different points of view.Moreover, thereis apt to be much overlapping in such records. Thedata used in this paper is taken from the most authentic sources,and is, we feel, conservative.A missionary is one specially sent by the Church of God to carry

the glad tidings of the Gospel to those who have not yet receivedthem. By a foreign missionary we mean, one, not a native, who

98 MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

preaches the Gospel in pagan lands, or in foreign lands that are nolonger pagan, but have few or no native clergy, like the West Indiesand parts of the Philippines, South and Central America. Weunderstand as pagan lands countries where the majority of thepopulation does not worship the one, true God.There are about 38,000 foreign missionaries, and they are divided

as follows : 12,000 Priests, 6,000 Brothers, and 20,000 Sisters. Thesefigures would, of course, be much larger if we included the nativePriests and Sisters (about 10,000) who are laboring for the con-version of their own people, and European missionaries who havefollowed their own Christian countrymen to other lands, like thevast army of Irish Priests and Nuns in America and Australia. It

might be mentioned in passing that in China there are over 800 nativePriests and over 1,500 native Sisters. Indo-China has about thesame number, while in India we find as many native Priests andSisters as there are in China and Indo-China put together.

Up to the present almost all of the Catholic foreign missionarieshave come from Europe. The World War has naturally reducedtheir number and its effects will be felt in the personnel of themissions for some years, as many of the Seminaries and Conventswhere young men and women prepared for mission work were either

closed or greatly depleted. A large number of these apostolicschools and colleges were used as hospitals during the War.

A Missionary's Training

While some will be surprised at the large number of native Priests

and Sisters in the Far East, many, undoubtedly, will ask, "But whyare there not more foreign missionaries?" Not merely to answerthis question, but because those who will read this chapter may notbe well informed about the calling, preparation and training of ourmissionaries, we feel that this fundamental question should betouched upon.The foreign missionary, just as the Priest or Sister at home, does

not follow this life in preference to another, like those, for example,who select the professions of law, medicine or teaching. "You havenot chosen me: but I have chosen you" (John XV. 16), said Christto His Apostles. This same call applies equally to the modern Peterengaged in the self same apostolic work. In other words, our mis-sionaries must have a vocation, they must be called by God, whomanifests His wishes in many different ways. Most writers uponthis point go farther and claim that there is a very special vocationto be a foreign missionary, entirely distinct and much higher thanthat of the Priest or Sister in Christian lands. This matter of voca-tion, as understood by Catholics, is not easy to grasp by those outside

the Church. We know, however, that there are a great many Prot-estants who look upon it in just the same light as we do.

The long years of preparation and training of our missionaries,

too, may surprise many. A boy who aspires to this lofty calling

usually enters an apostolic school after he has completed the ordinary

MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH 99

high school. Then follows a course equal to the four years ofcollege, including two years of philosophy. By this time the candi-

date has been carefully trained and disciplined. If the observationsof his superiors have satisfied them as to his character, intellectual

equipment and general fitness for the priesthood and its exercise in

the foreign fields, he is permitted to advance to the study of theology.

Even there, a strict and severe disciplinary training is continuedand, usually at the end of the second year, comes the call to MinorOrders. After his third year in the Seminary the student receives

Major Orders and then, when his entire course is completed, he is

ordained to the priesthood. Some young priests are assigned to theforeign fields immediately after their ordination, others are sent to

universities for higher studies or obliged to teach in the apostolic

schools and seminaries before the goal of their ambition is finally

attained. Since the majority of our foreign missionaries are mem-bers of Religious Orders, in addition to the above long period ofstudy and preparation they spend two years of Novitiate, duringwhich there is very little study, but much character training, result-

ing from spiritual exercises under a competent and carefully selected

Novice Master.The Brothers and Sisters, of course, do not go through this long

period of probation and studies, but their training is in many casesmuch stricter than that of the Brothers and Sisters who expect to

labor for souls in Europe and America.

The Church in Many Lands

In a short treatise like the present it is difficult to make an ade-quate or even a satisfactory statement about the world wide missionactivities of the Church. There are so many phases of the questionthat we can only give a brief account of the work in general; and in

order that as much information as possible may be gleaned there-from, we will classify the personnel and the present results of theefforts of the laborers according to the various political divisions ofthe harvest field, keeping in mind that now, as in the early days ofChristianity, it is only too true that "The harvest indeed is great, butthe laborers are few." Matt. IX. $7.

There are on the face of the globe to-day about 1,500,000,000 people—one billion five hundred million souls ! One-third of this great armyonly is Christian—300,000,000 Catholics and 200,000,000 Protestants.In China alone there are almost as many pagans as there are Chris-tians in the rest of the world. Think of it, almost every third childborn into this world is a Chinese boy or girl. If the pagans ofChina were to file down Fifth Avenue at the rate of one hundredper minute, marching every minute of every hour and twenty-fourhours each day, and there were no breaks in that parade; if you,dear reader, and I, wanted to witness all of that great spectacle, howlong do you think we would have to remain upon the grandstand?A little over nine years!

Let us begin with Asia. Before giving the figures, an explanation

too MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

of some of the terms used may be helpful. A vicariate is an ecclesi-

astical division of mission territory less in importance than a diocese.

It may at any time be raised to the dignity of a diocese by beingcanonically determined as such. A prefecture is less in importancethan a vicariate. The ecclesiastical superiors having jurisdictionover these districts are called, respectively, vicars apostolic andprefects apostolic. The former is usually a bishop, the latter maybe but seldom is a bishop.

In India there are 2,311,000 Catholics, thirty-five archbishops andbishops, three prefects apostolic and 2,894 priests.

In Indo-China, which includes Burmah, Cambodia, Cochin China,Siam, Malacca and Tonkin, the Church has 1,121,122 Catholics,

seventeen bishops and 1,397 priests.

In China we find one diocese, forty-eight vicariates and oneprefecture apostolic, respectively governed by fifty bishops and oneprefect apostolic. In this vast new republic we have 1,859,883Catholics, 1,432 missionaries, 1,994 nuns, 7,736 Catechists, about10,000 churches and chapels and eighty-five seminaries.

Japan, which before the terrible persecutions counted over2,000,000 Catholics, was closed to missionaries for three hundredyears, and in i860 there was not one Catholic who openly professedhis faith in the Flowery Kingdom. To-day we have 162,212 Cath-olics, four bishops, two vicars apostolic, and two hundred andtwenty-three foreign missionaries here.

Africa has fourteen dioceses, seventy-two vicariates and prefec-tures apostolic, 3,523 missionaries and 2,896,105 Catholics.

Oceania offers us an illustration of what we said above aboutstatistics. If we include Australia, and in giving figures aboutOceania it is sometimes considered, we have well over 1,000,000

Catholics and nearly 2,000 priests. But since we do not now con-sider Australia a missionary country, although technically it is,

for its affairs are still directed by the Sacred Congregation of Propa-ganda in Rome, we have a much smaller number of missionariesand converts in Oceania. In this vast archipelago, which is some-times called Polynesia and includes the Caroline, Fiji, Solomon,Marquesas Islands, New Guinea, New Pomerania, New Caledoniaand others, there are nine vicariates, three prefectures, six hundredand eight missionaries and 276,794 Catholics.

In the above classification are enumerated 10,177 foreign mis-sionary priests. Besides these we find over 1,800 more who arelaboring in parts of the East and West Indies, the Philippines,

Alaska, South and Central America.

Support of the Missions

There are two great international mission aid organizations whichaim at supporting the Catholic foreign missionaries : The Society for

the Propagation of the Faith, founded in 1822 and composed of adult

members, and the Association of the Holy Childhood, established

in 1843. The receipts of these two Apostolic Works are used to

MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH 101

feed and clothe our 38,000 missionaries. The various activities andenterprises of the mission fields, such as the building and main-tenance of Churches, schools, hospitals, orphanages, etc., are sup-ported by the funds of other smaller national societies, local missioncircles and clubs, and by the contributions of individuals. The manyReligious Orders, Congregations and Societies dedicated entirely' orin part to foreign mission work, through their periodicals receive

considerable financial assistance for their own missions. Moreover,the relatives and friends of missionaries often send them material

help. Such support, according to some, is, in the aggregate, quite

large, but of course there is no means of tabulating it.

The two international Societies are organized in Christian coun-tries, with National, Diocesan and even Parochial Directors who arepriests. The funds thus collected are distributed semi-annually fromthe headquarters in Europe. But there is a steady flow of contribu-tions going constantly to the Missions from all the other abovenamed sources.

What the United States Is Doing

The interest of American Catholics in Foreign Missions growsmore intense from year to year and promises to be felt very stronglywithin the next decade. We are just emerging from the missionstate ourselves. Only a few years ago some of the now flourishing

Catholic centers counted but a few priests and a handful of fol-

lowers. In fact, at the present time there are extensive areas in theSouth, West and Northwest where churches and schools ai;e yet

to be built, where the local needs are so great that outside assistance

is needed.Not until 1898 was there any organized effort to put before the

faithful the cause of Foreign Missions ; and even now the East is the

only part of this vast country that has the work well in hand. Forover twenty years the two international Societies have had CentralBureaus in the United States. The National Headquarters of the

Society for the Propagation of the Faith were first located in Balti-

more, but are now in New York. The Association of the HolyChildhood opened its National Office in Pittsburgh, where it is at thepresent. The National Directors of these two collecting agenciessend out literature and work through Diocesan Directors. It waswith the appointment in 1898 of a priest free to give all his energyto the interests of Foreign Missions that the most notable successwas achieved. This first Diocesan Director who was really in aposition to devote his entire time to Mission work began by organiz-ing the Society for the Propagation of the Faith in each parish of theDiocese of Boston, and in a very few years the same system ofarousing practical sympathy for the Cause was introduced elsewhere.New York opened an Office in 1904, Philadelphia in 1913, Albany andSt. Paul in 1916, and Brooklyn in 1918. So well did the plan workthat Boston, New York, and Philadelphia each soon found it neces-sary to give two priests exclusively to this special work. It is

102 MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

probable before long a similar organization will be found in each

Diocese large enough to merit the adoption of this method.

Foreign Mission Seminaries in the United States

More rapid than the development of Mission Aid Societies has

been the growth of our Apostolic Schools and Seminaries whichprepare young Americans for actual participation in the work of the

Mission fields. At present we have two Preparatory Schools andtwo Seminaries, and the future promises an extension of this noble

enterprise. At present almost one hundred per cent of the Catholic

foreign missionaries come from Europe. We sincerely hope andhave confidence that the time is not far distant when the spiritual

influence of American Catholics will be felt in the Orient.

The first Seminary, St. Mary's Mission House, was founded in

Techny, Illinois, by the Society of the Divine Word, a GermanCongregation whose Mother House is at Steyl, Holland. This Con-gregation has Missions in the Philippines, China, Africa and the

Islands of the Pacific. Its members are Religious, i. e., they take

the three vows of Poverty. Chastity and Obedience. In 191 1 the

Catholic Foreign Mission Seminary was started at Hawthorne, NewYork, and later transferred to Ossining, New York. It bears the

distinction of being the first institution of its kind founded by anAmerican, the Very Rev. James A. Walsh, Missionary Apostolic,

who was the second Diocesan Director of the Society for the Propa-gation of the Faith in Boston. In 1912 the Sacred Heart MissionHouse was opened at Girard, Pennsylvania. It is a PreparatorySchool for St. Mary's at Techny, and is conducted by the Fathersof the Divine Word. In 1913 the Venard Apostolic School, now at

Clark's Green, Pa., was started at Scranton, Pa., by the Superiorof the Catholic Foreign Mission Seminary of America, for whichit prepares students. The Catholic Foreign Mission Seminary andthe Venard School are foundations of the Catholic Foreign MissionSociety of America.Besides these two Societies, which were founded expressly for the

foreign mission work, there are two others which have branches in

the United States—The Congregation of the Holy Ghost and TheMissionary Fathers of La Salette. Most of their European membersare engaged in preaching to the heathen, but their Missions amongthe colored people of the United States and their educational(College) work here among white Catholics demand the attention

of such a large percentage of their personnel that we do not considerthem Foreign Mission Seminaries in the full sense of the words.They have, however, American subjects in the distant Missionfields, and accept candidates in their Apostolic Schools with theunderstanding that, if their superiors consider them adapted forwork in the Orient, they will be assigned there.

In fact, most of the great Religious Orders have foreign fields forwhich they are responsible. Many of them have several thousandsof priests in pagan lands. This is especially true of the Jesuits andFranciscans.

MISSIONS OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH 103

American Missionaries in China

America's quota of priests actually laboring in foreign missions

is not large. There are about five American Franciscans in China.

About twenty-five American Jesuit Fathers are in India, Japan,Jamaica and the Philippine Islands. Recently the Diocese of Bom-bay, India, has been assigned to the American Jesuits. Eleven menare now awaiting passports. The American Redemptorists havethree large parishes in Porto Rico with a personnel of thirteen

Fathers and four Brothers. The other Orders have a few Americansubjects scattered throughout the distant parts of the great whiteharvest field.

Maryknoll, as the Catholic Foreign Mission Society is popularlycalled, sent its first quota of four missionaries to China in Septem-ber, 1918. One year later the Superior of the little band, the Rev.Thomas Price, was called to his reward, when his work there wasscarcely begun. Maryknoll has since sent its second quota to China.In September, 1919, the Fathers of the Divine Word witnessed the

ceremony of departure of their first band of missionaries, three

in number, and destined likewise for China.

In Other Lands

There is no authentic data about the number of AmericanBrothers and Sisters in the Field Afar. We know of one hundredand seventy Sisters. Most of these Nuns are in Alaska, Porto Rico,

Jamaica and the Hawaiian Islands. We feel sure that there aremany more in the Far East than those who are known to us. Theidentity of a Sister is lost soon after she enters the Convent. . Shethen takes a Saint's name by which she is known thereafter. It is

this conscious emulation of the heroes and heroines of Christiantruth which signalizes Catholic missionary activities. In povertyand humility souls inspired by personal love for the Divine Redeemerand Teacher of men go forth to bring His message of light and hopeto unenlightened and depressed nations and peoples. The spirit ofthis sublime work grows apace in the United States. Each year,

zealous, virtuous young men and women, born and educated in theUnited (States, aspire to the service of spreading truth and graceamong the benighted pagans in the field afar. The secret of thehopes and the great sustaining power of the Catholic missionaryprogram finds its model and counterpart in the hearts and souls ofthe first, selected Twelve Apostles, the abiding presence of their

Lord and Master, Jesus Christ.

In the jungles of Africa, in the canebrakes of India, amid theswarming cities of China, just as in New York, Chicago or SanFrancisco, Catholics go to church to worship God Almighty whois personally present in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar.

To Him they can talk and open their hearts, and from Him theycan draw comfort and consolation. This is the life of the missionaryand of his converts. No Catholic missionary could suffer completeand permanent separation from his native land and those whom he

104 GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONS

loves, isolation from his fellow missionaries and the want of com-panionship, poverty, overwork, and all the other difficulties whichdaily face him unless he had Jesus daily in his hands, on the Altarand in his heart, to stimulate him in his undertakings, to enheartenand strengthen him in his trials and discouragements.

GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONSS. W. Boggs

"The end of the geographical feat is the beginning of the mis-sionary enterprise," said Livingstone. The geographical feat nothaving been accomplished for Central Africa, he undertook it him-self for the sake of Christian missions. There is today a wealth ofgeographical knowledge which has not yet been appropriated by the

Christian missionary forces to the degree to which Livingstonewould undoubtedly have utilized it.

This article is intended to suggest some of the more importantways in which geographical knowledge may be utilized, both to makethe work on the field more effective and the support of the work bythe home base more nearly adequate. The writer does not undertaketo do more than indicate some of the conclusions which have beenreached in the careful observation of recent missionary literature

and propaganda material.

The range of the uses to which geographical data may be put is

so great, and some of the methods of applying it so complicated andtechnical, that it is the belief of the writer that a comprehensiveplan of missionary geography should be put into operation by someagency which is authorized to serve the missionary societies in

common.Evidence of the Need of a Comprehensive Plan

A few typical requests, which have been made in recent monthsby secretaries of mission boards and editors of missionary and re-

ligious magazines, are noted below to illustrate the variety of thepossible applications of geography to missions.

Unoccupied Mission Fields. "What are the unoccupied missionfields?" is a question frequently asked, and no satisfactory reply is

available. The unoccupied areas include much more than the severalvast stretches of sparsely settled land in which no missionaries areat work. The only way to answer the question is to show therelative adequacy of occupation throughout the world, which wouldrequire knowledge as to populations by tribes, races, linguistic groupsand social classes which have not yet been adequately reached bymissions, within areas generally supposed to be occupied.Mission Hospitals in Africa. A map showing the location of all

the Protestant mission hospitals in Africa was recently prepared bya prominent missionary agency. It was necessary to use data forthe year 1915. It took several days to prepare a map which was eventhen much less satisfactory than it would have been if the suggestionsmade below had been in operation.

Mission Stations of German Societies. To make certain of the

GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONS 105

proper adjustments to be made in the areas formerly occupied by-

German missionaries, but in which they are not at present permittedto work because of restrictions placed by the nations having jurisdic-

tion, would require weeks or months of study. It would be neces-sary to know not only the location of the stations of the Germansocieties, but also of the other agencies working in the vicinity ofthese stations. But no maps have been prepared since 191 1 whichgive the location of all Protestant stations, and no list of the stations

of the world has been prepared since 1915. Yet the person who re-

quested the information expected that it would be worked out in

a day or two.Missionary Map of Japan. A secretary of one of the great mis-

sionary organizations recently spent several days preparing a wallmap snowing the population per missionary in the several prefecturesof Japan. Having served as a missionary in Japan he was able to

make his own map as quickly as he could have made sketches ordrawn up instructions for someone else to follow, but the map heproduced is such as could have been prepared more quickly andinexpensively by others, if a map of Japan showing the prefectures,

together with a census, and the missionary facts now available, wereto be had in the city in which the work had to be done.Comparative Areas of Mission Fields. Very frequently the at-

tempt is made to present the size of some mission field graphically.

AFRICA AND GREENLAND COMPARED(Greenland is represented by the shaded area.)

From the same Mercator's map of the From equal-area projection maps onworld—a false comparison. the same scale—the true comparison.

106 GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONS

In order to do this, maps of the areas which it is desired to com-pare must be found or prepared, which are on the same scale (thesame number of miles per inch) and on equal area projections (sothat, say, one square inch anywhere on the map represents the sameland area as any other square inch on the same map). These twosimple but technical requirements are not always easy to fulfill.

The necessity of comparing areas graphically is due largely to thealmost universal use of the Mercator's Projection for world maps,which has done much to fix quite strongly in the minds of manypeople a very mistaken conception of the relative size of land areasof the globe. This has been further accentuated by the use of mapsin school geographies, where Asia, Alaska or Connecticut is made to

fill a page, and in no way is the student assisted to comprehend therelative size of foreign countries. The map on the preceding pageshows clearly the need of a corrective to be applied in the interpreta-

tion of the foreign mission fields to the home base constituency.

Essentials of Missionary Geographyi. Discovery and record of all mission stations of all mission

agencies in all foreign fields.

2. Discovery and record of the chief non-missionary facts, suchas area, population, natural resources, climate, accessibility, com-merce routes, distribution of religions, languages, and races, withrespect both to occupied and unoccupied mission fields. This in-

formation should be so classified as to make it possible to determinethese facts for any area. This means largely a supplementing ofpresent library facilities with a special catalogue showing where to

find such information as missionary agencies have an interest in,

with respect to any area, large or small.

3. Preparation of a complete new set of maps, all maps to bemade on the same scale and on equal-area projections. On copies

of such a base map for, say, India, a series of maps should be pre-

pared—one showing all mission stations, another showing distribu-

tion of population by races, another by languages, and so forth.

4. Delimitation of "problem areas" is essential to missionarystrategy. When a missionary society takes up work in any place,

ideally it would be its task to occupy in an adequate manner all ofthe area in which the problem is a unit as to language, race andreligion, etc., unless the field be altogether too large for the re-

sources of the organization. But the study of the areas in whichthe problem is homogeneous has never been undertaken in a system-atic way. The accompanying map showing where the Hindi-speak-ing peoples of India live gives a little suggestion as to what^ can bedone in this line. From the standpoint of literature production anddistribution, such a map is invaluable. It would be necessary, how-ever, in a study of the Hindi-speaking people, further to discover,

for instance, which of these are Moslem, and where they live—the

Hindi-speaking Moslems constituting a "unit problem," and the areain which they live being a "problem area." (It is obvious that suchareas overlap, and to this is largely due the present degree of "over-looking" of classes and races.)

Indo-China, Burma, and China. Any study of problem areas wouldquickly reveal the situation here, whereas a study based on political

units, as_ most studies are, is apt to overlook these conditions. Inthis particular case, the societies working among these peoples havebeen compelled to use five different alphabets for the one family oflanguages, and they have not yet nearly occupied this "problemarea." A careful study of the Tai problem is necessary which will

cover all the political and linguistic areas in which these people live.

Principles to be ObservedI. The work should be continuous, not periodic. It would seem

that the time has come that somewhere, somehow, continuity shouldbe arranged for geographical work adapted to missions. In big busi-ness the perpetual inventory is taking the place of annual inventory.

i. The work should be continuous, not periodic. It would seem thatthe time has come that somewhere, somehow, continuity should bearranged for geographical work adapted to missions. In big businessthe perpetual inventory is taking the place of the annual inventory.

io8 GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONS

Many phases of the geographical work of missions should be con-tinuous. The list of stations, for instance, should be kept up-to-date,

and the location of each station should be accurately indicated on abase map. Whenever it is found that a station has been incorrectly

located, the correction should be made promptly, .and whenever astation is abandoned, the name should be erased from the map. Thisis the more important because it should be possible to provide inex-pensive maps at any time, giving the location of all mission stations

at that time, and not at the time of the publication of some atlas,

years previously. A general is expected to know where his army is.

The mission constituency should know where the mission forces are,

not where they were once upon a time.2. Accuracy should be the unvarying rule. For those who do not

see the need of care in map-making, it may be said that accuracysaves time, effort, temper and conscience. Suppose station A is

located on a new mission map 35 miles south-east of its properposition. Station B is later discovered to be 43 miles east of A, butit is located on the map with reference to A as it is wrongly placed.

Later it is learned that whereas B appears to be 24 miles south of C(which is a city whose location is known) it is actually 26 miles

west of C. Suppose maps have now been published showing the

incorrect position of A and B. Multiply the difficulties of this situa-

tion by at least ten, add the confusion of conflicting informationfrom three or four different missionary societies whose maps are all

on so small a scale as to be worth little for study purposes, and it

just begins to approach the situation arising put of the past inade-quate geographical work of missionary agencies.

3. There should be uniformity of method and standard through-out. It should be possible to compare the facts of any area withthose of any other area. As suggested above, the maps should bemade on equal-area projections for all fields, and all fields should bemapped on the same scale. By the time of the next world mis-sionary conference, it should be possible to display a new set oftopographical missionary maps on the same scale, on equal-area pro-jections, with the same symbols and in every way comparable onewith the other. In addition, several series of maps should be pre-pared uniformly on the same scale, to show population, density ofpopulation, distribution of races, tribes, languages, accessibility, etc.

4. Service rather than abstract research should be the aim. Onechief difficulty with much of the geographical work in missions in

the past is that the studies have been so restricted that it has beenimpossible to serve those who asked questions in the way they de-served to be answered. In order to serve, a wide range of study is

imperative. Data that is ample for publicity purposes will notsuffice for missionary administrators, for missionary candidates mak-ing intensive preparation for a prospective field, or for missionarieson the field. Much of the geographical and semi-geographicalinformation valuable to missions is technical, and must be masteredby experts and made available to students in non-technical form.Information must be accessible to students of missions with respect

GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONS 109

to all mission areas not only as to what maps are most artistic andlegible (the best criteria the novice in geography has to go by) butas to what maps are most reliable, on what they are based, and whichparts of the map are accurate and which are inaccurate. But the aimin gathering maps or data should be invariably to serve those whoneed advice and help in missionary studies. Methods and definitions

should be employed which would make available to anyone quickly,

and at little expense, the best maps and geographical data withrespect to any mission field or problem.

5.' Economy should be practised in the whole program. There areeconomical methods recently developed which few, if any, missionboards are employing. If utilized, they would greatly help bothboard secretaries and missionaries in numerous ways. No single

board can well afford the equipment essential to a geographical estab-

lishment, but if several should cooperate, they would get results

many times greater than they now obtain and at less expense, and it

would make it possible for each board to compare its work with that

of any other board, in any field. The inventions which could becalled into use are increasing rapidly. For instance, it is nowpossible to install a card file of mission stations, equipped with certain

mechanical selecting devices, by means of which it would be possible

to learn at once (from a single card file) such facts as the following:All mission stations of the societies of one nationality.

All stations in which mission hospitals are located.

All stations within a given field, or a single province of a field.

All stations of one society within one of its mission areas.

All stations in which interdenominational work is done.The number of categories which could be obtained in this way is

almost unlimited, and it is possible to make any number of combina-tions in a single operation. With such a file installed, and a series

of basic maps, one for each field, on which all stations of all societies

are located accurately, it would be possible to prepare a map for anysociety, showing the stations coming under almost any conceivableclassification—and this can be done with the minimum of expenseand time.

How This Geographical Program Would Assist Missions

1. It would assist mission boards and missionary administratorsin the following ways :

a. In preparing maps for publication in reports, bulletins, etc.

b. In obtaining wall maps and lantern slides of maps.c. In making special field studies of small areas, as to population,

races, languages, etc., and the indication of such facts on maps. It

would be possible to prepare maps for any society which wouldshow the location of all the stations of all other societies working in

the vicinity, and which would also show where mission hospitals,educational, industrial and other institutions are located.

2. It would serve missionaries on the field or on furlough in that it

would be possible:

no GEOGRAPHY AND MISSIONS

a. To provide them with large scale mission maps for their ownareas, on which to make reports to their boards, or to make special

studies.

b. To furnish them with photographic copies of the most reliable

and serviceable maps of their fields, or give them information as to

the best maps to purchase for their own use.

c. To make available to them the best information as to the peoplesamong whom they are working, as to natural resources, the explora-tions of travelers, etc.

d. To help new missionaries to begin a life study of the peopleand their needs and problems. This is by no means least important,in the opinion of missionaries who have felt the lack of such assist-

ance, and who have seen missionaries atrophy, never having beenencouraged to make a genuine study of their field.

3. It would greatly serve publicity propaganda. It would make it

possible to portray many facts which cannot now be interpreted be-

cause present information is so partial. The writer is confidentthat the plan contemplated in this paper is both comprehensive andpractical, and would almost instantly make accessible data which hasbeen gathered. Those who are engaged in publicity work will ap-preciate these features.

Conclusion

Up to the present time missionary geography has been limited

chiefly to the preparation of simple topographical maps showing thelocation of mission stations. Grundemann produced an atlas ofmissions in 1901, both international and interdenominational in scope,

but a glance reveals its inadequacy as a means of discovering the

status of Christian work in the non-Christian world. ProfessorWarneck has done valuable geographical work of an historical naturein connection with his study of the history of Protestant missions.A few of the denominations and missionary societies have producedfairly satisfactory maps of their own restricted fields. ProfessorHarlan P. Beach has done much to confute those critics who belittle

everything American as inaccurate and unscholarly. His Volume I,

accompanying the World Atlas of Christian Missions of 1901, seemsto be the most successful attempt to enlarge the field of missionarygeography to include more than a mere collection of maps showingplace names. The report of Commission I of the Edinburgh Con-ference makes large use of geographical data in a way to indicatewhat services may still be required of geography as an aid to

missions.

In general the geographical work in missions has been heretoforetoo much limited to the location of stations. What is needed nowis a study of the adequacy of occupation and the utilization of meansto make the data which is gathered accessible in the most convenientform, quickly, and at small expense. It would certainly seem thatthe time has come to put into practice a plan which is not only com-prehensive and scientific, but perfectly adapted to the requirementsof a church which has the divine commission to go into all the worldand preach the gospel.

A SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF RECENTLITERATURE RELATING TO FOREIGN

MISSION WORKMiss Hollis W. Hering, M.A.*

The following bibliography is distinctly not exhaustive. It hasbeen selected with the idea of presenting some of the best materialrelating to mission lands which has appeared since the last YearBook was issued. Mission work and thought have been profoundlyaffected by the war, and the aim therefore has been to emphasizesuch books and articles as show actual conditions on the field or thetrend of thought in mission circles. This has necessarily resulted in

the inclusion of some non-missionary books, since economic andpolitical conditions are influencing greatly the type of mission workwhich is developing. The two great annuals—the China MissionYear Book, and the Christian Movement in the Japanese Empire—it

is taken for granted are known to all interested in this subject, andhave not, therefore, been included in the list.

A word must be said in regard to the periodical entries. It is

manifestly impossible to do other than abstract in briefest fashionthe leading articles, selecting those in keeping with the general aimof the bibliography. Few purely inspirational articles are noted.The periodicals thus indexed are practically the same as those chosenlast year, with the exception of the Church Missionary Review. Thishas been substituted for The Missionary Review of the World, andthe latter has been indexed by author and title only at the end of thevarious sections. It is believed that in this way there can be pre-sented to the North American constituency a well-rounded view ofthe mission situation as a whole. As the bibliography has beenconcluded in early October, the complete files for the year have notbeen available.

It is an arraign-ment of imperialism, whether British, American, or German. Japaneseimperialism in Asia is natural, while "most of the animosity and resent-ment against Japan is due to the fact that the Japanese refuse to allowthemselves to be exploited by us, as the other Asiatic countries have been."All of Japan's moves in Asia are directed by her determined policy ofopposition to European right of eminent domain in that continent.

prising to find in it radical ideas. This is especially true in regard to therelations of Great Britain and India. Some of the statements are notvery conclusively supported, as that "all China" is "tending to combinein a demand for the final exclusion" of all missionaries, protestant andcatholic. It is to be remembered, however, that 291 pages form a verysmall canvas on which to sketch all phases of Western contact with theEast, and results therefrom, and much of the work must necessarily besuperficial. The book at least challenges us to prove that we have givenor are now giving the East fair play.

LENWOOD, Frank. Social problems and the East. A point ofhonour. London, Church Missionary Society, 1919, pp. 208.

This is an attempt to show to all who are interested in the social problemsof their own country how deeply Christian missions are committed tothe solution of similar problems in foreign lands. Africa and SouthAmerica are included in the "East." The great outstanding moral prob-lems of the world—east or west—are considered; the problem of thesanctity of human life, of education as a help to social morality, of sex, ofindustry, of race consciousness. The walls around "mission work" arebattered down in the search for a guiding principle to a clean society

east and west; we are forced to admit that "we have not taught ouryoung men and women a loyalty to Christ sufficiently strong to protectthem against the temptations of a non-Christian environment," and astrong plea is made for such a presentation of Christianity that we willrecognize the fundamental likeness of social questions the world over, andfight for their solution from a world point-of-view.

LEVINE, I. D. The resurrected nations; short histories of thepeoples freed by the great war and statements of their nationalclaims. New York, Stokes, [C1919], pp. 309. $1.60.

The author distinctly states that this is not a controversial treatise,but a popular history. It is divided into two parts; the resurrected nationsin Europe, freed by the collapse of the Russian and German empires;and those in Asia, freed by the collapse of the Turkish and Austro-Hungarian empires. In the latter, the resurrection of Palestine is madesynonymous with the Zionist movement, a good brief sketch of which is

given. It is self-evident that in 309 pages, the histories of 18 nationalitiescan only be sketched in the very briefest way, yet the book is good for thosebusy people who wish to "keep up with the times."

PELL, E. L. Adventures in faith in foreign lands. Nashville,Methodist Episcopal Church, South, 1919, pp. 296. $.60.

This is a sketch of what has been accomplished in the missions of theM. E. Church, South. It is in the nature of taking stock, before startingon the new program of the Centenary work. All the fields are considered,a brief history of the different missions given, together with a summaryof the present situation. Emphasis is laid on the countries and the workrather than the workers, and the book is written in an interesting, tellingmanner. It is an excellent compact little reference book of the missionwork of this church.

BURNET, Amos. The native question in South Africa. (TheChurch Missionary Review, September, 1919, pp. 234-242.)

This "question" is really a series of racial, economic, political, andsocial problems, the solving of which will influence all racial contact ofall peoples everywhere. A.s the author points out, the local backgroundis a million and a quarter white people, widely scattered over a countryoccupied by some five million natives in every possible stage of civilization.

Division of opinion among the whites is not sharply drawn between Dutchand British; it ranges from those who would make civilization the test

for political privilege to those who would forever deny all rights to everynative. So far, the Union Government has consistently decided againstthe native. This is noticeable in the Pass Laws, in the discriminationbetween white and black miners in regard to the right to strike, butabove all in the Native Land Act of 191 3. By this Act, the land in theUnion was divided into mutually exclusive European and native areas

a million and a quarter white people receiving 87 per cent of the wholecountry, five million natives receiving the remaining 13 per cent, much ofwhich is uninhabitable. Despite desperate efforts of the friends of thenatives, this law still stands. The outlook, however, is not hopeless.The whole missionary body stands strongly for native rights; but morethan that, the best minds throughout the country seem increasingly willingto look at the native side of the question.

DALE, Godfrey. In ''German" East Africa. (The East and TheWest, January, 1919, pp. 19-33.)

German East Africa has been the center of very great interest, andthere was unanimous agreement that it should not be returned toGermany. The largest non-German missionary work in this district wasthat of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa, and the author, whohas worked there for twenty-five years, gives a survey of the social andpolitical prospects of the district, including the desolation wrought by thewar in this mission. Originally, the country belonged to tribes of Bantudescent, but large tracts of land were unoccupied and there was no settle-

ment and no peace in the country. When the Germans acquired the land,

they failed to observe the necessary conditions of good government,treating the African as a thing, not as a man, and thus raising manyeconomic problems. At the outbreak of the war, the Universities' Missionwas faithfully endeavoring to work in harmony with the Government,it had the nucleus of a native ministry, a large body of native teachersand out-schools, promising work among the women, and decided possi-

bilities of expansion in many directions. During the war, two-thirds of' the staff were interned, many of the teachers doing "hard labour," the

schools, churches, and hospitals closed, the natives exposed to persecutionbecause they belonged to the English mission. The fact that in spite ofeverything the work has now been resumed has resulted almost in arevival among the natives, while the possibilities of expansion are infinitely

greater than ever before.

FULLANI bin FULLANI. Religion and common life. A prob-lem in East African missions. (The International Review ofMissions, April, 1919, pp. 155-172.)

The Christian missionary movement of the twentieth_century must

respond vitally to twentieth century needs, no matter with how manytraditions it breaks in so doing. This principle applied to Africa meansa re-examination of methods of approach to the African's daily life. Theearly missionaries conceived oversight of the changes in the life of thevillage, tribe, or race due to the teaching of the Christian religion to bebeyond the scope of missionary duties. Their position was justifiable onlyso long as the convert continued to live in an organized social structure.Tremendous economic changes, due to the white man, occurring with therapidity of lightning, have now broken down the African's social structure,and left his mind as homeless as his body is wandering. The educational,medical, industrial, and agricultural developments of the missions are thusvitally important and must be such as to make the church related practi-cally to present-day conditions of native life.

JONES, F. M. The mass movement in the Yoruba country.(The Church Missionary Review, March, 1919, pp. 46-56.)

The fluid state of native thought in the Yoruba country brings squarelybefore the church two questions: is Christianity or Islam to be the pre-vailing religion? what is to be the character of the Christianity? WhereChristian teachers are first on the spot, in adequate numbers, Islam hasonly a poor chance; if the Moslem gets there first, the chances of Christi-anity are small. So far, it is not hard to fulfil here the first two clausesof the Great Commission—to baptize, and to make disciples. The peopleare coming over in numbers, yet in such numbers that most of themdo not realize all that conversion ought to involve. Here follows thedifficulty—to teach them to do all things God has commanded us.Naturally, this is a task made doubly hard in a land where heredity andpublic opinion are opposed

>to what we accept as fundamental morals.

The need of adequately trained native teachers is tremendous, but alongwith that is the great need for superintending missionaries, and for mis-sionaries working among the women. The women are the hardest toreach, yet without Christian wives there can be no Christian homes, andthese are essential to Church life.

MACDONALD, A. J. A new development in the West Africaliquor traffic. (The Church Missionary Review, June, 1919,

pp. 104-113.)

The author quite frankly believes that "temperance is always pref-erable to total abstinence," at least so far as the white man is concerned.At present, it is undeniable that liquor is bad for the native races ofAfrica, and the war has proved it also unnecessary. Since the ParisConference has laid down the principle that the government of nativeraces is in the nature of a trustee-ship the interests of the black man in

the black man's country (West Africa) should be considered ahead ofthose of the white man. But progressive black opinion has declaredemphatically against liquor, the Governor-General and the LieutenantGovernor of Nigeria have each declared "trade spirits" to be ruining thenative, and war-time conditions (under which the importation of liquorwas reduced to a minimum since Germany supplied almost all of theshipping) have exploded the theory that prohibition would have a badeffect on the trade of West Africa and on the raising of the revenuethere. Therefore, the Secretary of State for the colonies has informed theGovernments of the British West African colonies that for the presentthe importation of all spirits is to be prohibited except under speciallicenses which do not include "trade spirits."

ROWLING, F. The building of the Uganda cathedral. (TheInternational Review of Missions, April, 1919, pp. 227-237.)

The great cathedral of Uganda, the#fourth on the present site, is one of

the marvels of missionary structure in Africa. After the preparation ofthe designs, actual work was begun in Africa in 191 2 by cutting away six

feet of the top of the hill to provide a large enough area for the building.The quarrying of the foundation stones, the making of the bricks, thesurveying and making the road over which much of the hauling was to bedone, and various other snags proved so much more expensive than antici-

pated that the plans had finally to be greatly changed. The war neces-sarily intensified all difficulties. The fact that financially the BagandaChristians have put forth an_ effort equivalent to that necessary to raise

at least £250,000 in an English diocese speaks eloquently for their desirefor the building and their devotion to the cause it represents.

Bymeans of a brief sketch of the present missionary forces in Congo, theirhigh standard of church membership, their emphasis on education andespecially industrial education, the writer approaches the great problemsof the district. These he summarizes as that of great unoccupied terri-

tory; the tremendous need of medical missionaries (there are only 11 inthe whole of Congo); the language difficulty, which is a growing problem;the cities, "filled with natives from all parts, coast men, white traders, andimported wickedness"; relations with the government, with the increasinginimical pressure on the latter of the Roman Catholics; and, finally, theapproaching Mohammedan menace.

WILLIS, J. J. The principle of alliance in missionary work.(The Church Missionary Review, March, 1919, pp. 6-14.)

Among the valuable lessons taught us by the war, it is doubtful whetherany is more valuable than that of the necessity and practicability ofalliance. That the Church recognized this and was moving towards it

before the war was evidenced by the Kikuyu conference in 1913; thatthat meeting was somewhat premature was evidenced by the controversythen aroused. But in 19 18 another Kikuyu Conference was held in whichthe principle of alliance was not only adopted, but was put into activeoperation. The conference was representative, for practically every mis-sionary society working in the Uganda Protectorate, including the BibleSociety, was represented. Four heads of government departments, districtcommissioners, and representative planters were also present. The five

larger missionary societies definitely entered the alliance, the others acced-ing to the general scheme to the utmost of their ability. The Alliancehas a representative council, appointed by the local governing bodies ofthe allying societies, and is advised by a number of sub-committeesresponsible for departments such as education, finance, literature, etc. Itis important to note that this council is to take immediate action to securethe co-operation of African Christians in its work, for the administrationof the alliance ought not to be solely in European hands.

This is a description of pioneer missionary life in Assam, in which theprivations and hardships are touched upon lightly, while the everydayscenes and incidents of native life are graphically, frequently humorouslydepicted. There is no deep discussion of mission problems, although thebacksliding evangelist is honestly and sympathetically drawn, but the dailyround of teaching, judging, and doctoring draws forth many an interestedsmile. The earnestness and worth-while-ness of the work done is soobvious that it does not need to be emphasized, while the glimpses of homemaking difficulties bring home the realization that the days of frontierheroism are by no means past.

ANNETT, E. A. The Sunday school in India. (The Interna-tional Review of Missions, April, 1919, pp. 205-217.)

The author has for nine years devoted his time to Sunday-school workin India. He here gives a brief survey of the present situation, findingthe schools are generally of four types, (a) those approaching most nearlyto the type common in western lands; (b) those held in connection withthe mission day school; (c) those found in mass movement areas; (d)those found in areas little touched by other Christian influences. Thehardest problems are connected with the two latter. The opportunity is

seemingly boundless, but the dangers lie in the lack of proper outlines forteaching, the small proportion of purely voluntary workers, and the lackof teachers thoroughly trained to teach the Bible to Indian children. Toremedy the latter the India Sunday School Union has instituted a TeacherTraining Course, missions are emphasizing a definite period of trainingfor these workers, and there is becoming increasingly evident a desire fora central training institution for leaders of teachers.

This is written from the point of view of work in a mass movementcountry, and is a plea for a more successful scheme of general educationof these masses. The author finds three factors having an important bear-ing on the subject: the growing number of Indians aspiring to a certainmeasure of self-government; the demand for the conscience-clause in

Indian schools; the comparative failure of missions to educate the peoplein the village elementary schools. The Christian community in India is

growing by leaps and bounds, and if, in the future, it is to be of anyinfluence in the country it must be educated, both for the franchise andfor daily life. Therefore would it not be wiser to bow to the conscienceclause to the extent of concentrating educational work on the Christians;and to emphasize the importance of this education to the masses by in-

cluding more vocational work in the mission boarding-schools.

DUNLOP, D. C. L. The Kumbh Mela at Allahabad. (The Eastand The West, April, 1919, pp. 152-164.)

India is the land of sacred rivers, and at Allahabad the holy Jumnajoins the still holier Ganges. At this juncture there wells up fromunderground a third river, most sacred of all, the Saruswati, and thosewho bathe here receive great blessings. Every year this is the scene ofa great fair, or Mela, but every twelfth year comes the great Kumbh Mela.The last one of these was held in 1918, on the great days of which it is

estimated that over 3,000,000 people were present in the river at one time.Mr. Dunlop spreads before us this great panorama of Eastern religious life,

with all its devotion, and all its hopelessness. Human nature is the samethe world over, for even as Turkish soldiers used to stand guard over thesacred places in Jerusalem at Easter to prevent fights among the Chris-tian pilgrims, so the processions of the Kumbh Mela are regulated by theauthorities, must be headed by a force of sowars, and led by a Europeancivilian, to control disorders arising from jealousy and disagreements.

EDDY, G. S. Church union in India. (The Chinese Recorder,August, 1919, pp. 525-532.)The movement for church union is strongest on the mission fields, and

among those fields it is farthest advanced in India. Here there is theSouth India United Church, composed of Christians who formerly be-longed to the Congregational, London Missionary Society, Dutch Reformed,Free Church of Scotland, Established Church of Scotland, and BaselReformed missions. Now these have taken a step to bridge the gulfto the Episcopal churches. Mr. Eddy here gives the agreement which wasrecently unanimously adopted. It conserves the Congregational, thePresbyterian, and the Episcopal elements; it provides for the consecrationof the first bishops in the South India United Church, but limits thepresent ministers, until further common arrangements can be made, topreaching and administering the communion in churches of their ownbody. The union is not yet officially sanctioned but a step so far inadvance has been taken that it will be possible to test the truth of thestatement that if it were not for the foreign missionary the IndianChurches would speedily unite.

Ceylon. (The International Review of Missions, July, 1919, pp.

341-356; October, 1919, pp. 53I-545-)

The great differences in modes of thought between the Singhalese andWesterners are helpfully and interestingly suggested by means of fourgreat channels: customs, religious and social; literature; thought; andlanguage. The fundamental influence on custom is found in the doctrineof Kharma, which, as interpreted by the masses, is deadening to all

initiative. This is supplemented by the absolute "ego-centricity" of theirBuddhism, which is carried to such an extreme in daily life that there is

lack of co-operation, even trust to a large extent, between members of thesame family. While in family life there is much that is dignified andgracious (rudeness being the unpardonable sin) "subtlety and concealmentare the very marrow of daily life." This is very evident in the literatureand language, in which the effect sought for is sensuous rather thanmental, concealment rather than clearness. As a direct result of thedoctrine of Nirvana, the folklore shows no characterization, no pathos, nodepth of feeling. Three great factors influence the mentality of the

t.2o SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY

people—lack of relationships, lack of value of life, and fear, constant,overpowering fear. As a direct result, the connotation of a word in theirlanguage is utterly different from that of the word which translates it intoEnglish. It is in this fact that Mr. Gibson finds the explanation ofthe erroneous idea that Christian truths lay hidden in eastern books longbefore Christ gave them to the world. The author closes with a fewsuggestions of approach to the Singhalese, and a brief outline

_of the

constructive teaching he follows in the Training College at Peradeniya.

HOGG, Prof. A. G. Political reform and Hinduism. (The Inter-

Raises the question of the extent to which the problem of Indianpolitical reform may turn out to be one with the problem of evangeliza-tion. Starting from the ground that much blame is laid "at the door ofracial characteristics which ought to be laid at the door of religion,"and proceeding with the belief that political reform may prove to be asignificant influence in altering the religious faith of India, the authordiscusses some features in Hinduism which lend support to the latteridea. For example, caste, as a religious system, is diametrically opposedto responsible government, or equality before the law; as a social system,it has proved flexible enough to be compatible with responsible government.The idea that the present state of affairs is divinely ordered as a resultof previous incarnations deprives Hinduism of initiative. By inevitableinference, the problem of political reconstruction is closely bound upwith the problem of permeating India with a dynamic religion, i. e.,

Christianity.

HOLLAND, W. E. S. University reform in India. (The ChurchMissionary Review, March, 1919, pp. 24-36.)

Indian education has recently been under heavy fire, during whichCalcutta University has been searchingly investigated by an authoritativecommission. The 13 volume report of this commission has just beenpublished, but Dr. Holland here gives a remarkable summary of theconditions which underlie the criticism, and led to the work of the com-mission. Unfortunately, Indian universities were conceived as examiningand degree giving bodies. Gradually the university had affiliated to it agroup of entirely independent colleges scattered at different centers overa wide territory, and almost universally nonresidential. The chief motivein creating the university was to provide Government with candidates forvarious posts. As _ the Indian student is appallingly poor, this inevitablyresulted in the university being considered merely an employment agency,a place in which to cram for examinations, the failure to pass which meantlosing the chance of earning a respectable livelihood. This means furtherthat there is a total lack of a clear perception of what university workmeans, as there is no time which can be given to original research, andthe university is dominated by school methods. Few of the colleges havesufficient financial support; the result is huge classes and a small staff,

"which at once spells incompetent and shoddy education." One of themost unsatisfactory conditions is that a foreign language, English, is

the medium of instruction. Indeed, the whole setting of the curricula is

so foreign that a subject is memorized, not assimilated.

become one more caste among many.

MARSH, Noel. A day of opportunity at Delhi. (The East andThe West, July, 1919, pp. 232-245.)

The Cambridge University's Mission to Delhi has consistently aimedto develop a Church of India that should be self-supporting, self-governing,

and self-propagating. There is now evident a newly awakened self con-sciousness among the Indian Christians in Delhi, a rapidly developingvitality in the young Indian Church, which the home Church shouldwhole-heartedly welcome. The heavier responsibility assumed by theIndian Church has opened great possibilities, but also great transitional

dangers. It is not necessarily capable of assuming a heavier financial

burden; the quickening life of the community makes it more than everimportant to maintain a mission staff large enough to guide wisely andsympathetically the younger Indian Christians. The mission's wonderfullysuccessful work among the outcaste Chamars has brought with it boththe possibilities and the responsibilities inseparable from the Mass Move-ments. All of this makes this a day of supreme possibility and greatdanger in dealing with the Indian Christians.

PATON, William. Personal relationships between Indians andEuropeans. (The International Review of Missions, October,

1919, pp. 522-530.)

The question of the right relation between the foreign mission, betweenthe Indian worker and the European worker, is the most urgent questionfacing Christian statesmanship in India; for the undeniable fact is thatin that country today there exists a vast amount of ill-feeling, misunder-standing and bitterness between the Indian and the European. This is truein both religious and political circles, and fundamentally it resolves itself

into sheer mistrust of the good faith of the ruling race. The Indian is

supersensitive, and it must be admitted that in many Europeans thereexists a sense of racial superiority. This the Indian senses and exagger-ates, and the flame is fanned by the bigotry of some of the papers, bothIndian and English. In both the religious and the political realm thisracial feeling emphasizes the ever-present danger of paternalism, and,closely akin to that, the even more insidious danger of considering thecountry as "material" for missionary activities. After all, improved socialrelationships lie very near the heart of the problem. No one likes to beconsidered a "case," and, when the child grows up, the paternal attitudeshould give way to one of fellowship. Behind it all, however, lies thequestion of temper and spirit; it is for the European to realize that Indiahas something to give him as well as he to give India; that "equality is apart of love, and love is not the same as philanthropy."

PAUL, Kanakarayan. How missions denationalize Indians.(The International Review of Missions, October, 1919, pp. 510-

521.)

Without question the Indian Christian community is isolated from therest of India. Believing that this is very detrimental to the Christian aswell as to the non-Christian the National Secretary of the Indian Y. M. C.A. here endeavors to analyze some of the deep-lying causes of the condition.Early missionary effort, in the endeavor to purify the thought and prac-tices of the convert, inculcated a horror of Indian folk-lore, art, andliterature along with its religion. But it is just these things whichexpress the spirit of a country. This horror has now become softenedinto suspicion, in which latter form it is still active. In place of thenative product, the missionary introduced his Western art and literature,at times with a ludicrous effect, as when Western hymns, translated by acommittee of non-Indians, who tortured the language into a foreignprosody, are sung by Indians to tunes the rhythms of which are utterly

122 SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY

foreign to their feeling. Yet Indian genius has two, at least, distinctivelines which even Indian Christians should keep. One is a deep andabiding sense of the spiritual within and behind all things and acts of sense.The Westerner has not the "gift of the mystical," and tends to trainIndians in habits of thought which consider physical culture, industrialorganization, even moral progress as ends in themselves. This is denation-alization, greatly facilitated by the isolation of the Christian community.The second is a social heritage. The Indian is born into certain obliga-

tions, which are often incomprehensible to the western missionary. Yet it

is far from proved that the western doctrine of "individual rights" is morecivilized than the eastern one of "individual responsibilities. " Here theboarding-school system, for example, is a strong denationalizing agency.Taking children away from their homes during the most impressionableperiod of their lives, it so isolates them as to prevent any real assimilationof their native community responsibilities. This assimilation is happeningamong non- Christians, who are obtaining Western education; there theyounger and the older generations interchange constantly Western andEastern ideas. The Indian has a wonderful heritage; is it right so toisolate and "westernize" the convert as to rob him of this wealth?

POPLEY, H . A. The evangelistic movement in the Indianchurch. (The East and The West, April, 1919, pp. 138-144.)

The Evangelistic Movement is quite distinct from the Mass Movementboth in aim and method. It centers in the individual church rather thanin the mission, and its agents are the individual members of the churches.Mr. Popley describes its effect in strengthening Indian leadership, inbuilding up voluntary workers in the churches, in increasing the Christiancommunity, and in stimulating and deepening the spiritual life of theIndian Christians.

SINCLAIR, R. The development of a mass movement church.(The East and The West, July, 191 9, pp. 265-271.)

The outcaste is essentially social; so, when he comes to Christianity,his concern is for his community, he seeks its social uplift and emancipation.His aim, therefore, is worldly, yet gives to the missionary an opening foremphasizing the spiritual nature of the aid given, and for educating hiscommunity passion into the higher brotherhood of the church. Thiseducation of the convert is founded in the sifting processes leading tobaptism and the great privilege of Church membership. It is, however,the aim of all missionary effort to develop an independent native church,and the plan followed by the London Missionary Society in SouthTravancore, with its results, is here outlined. Complete independenceof the Mission on the part of the more advanced churches has beenencouraged, these churches being placed on a self-supporting and self-

governing basis, with a union of their own of which the missionaries aremembers. Thus there has been a great gain in self-reliance, as also inthe type of village pastor. Nevertheless, the actual working of the schemehas resulted in sterilizing interest in the salvation of others, and in adeep rooted suspicion of missionary friendliness. These drawbacks havenow been partially met by so modifying the plan as to make each churchresponsible for its own affairs, yet represented in a council charged withmeeting the evangelistic needs of its own area.

He was areserved, quiet Scot, who devoted himself heart and soul to China throughwork in the China Inland Mission. The biography is well written, andwe follow with interest the successful years in Shaohing, the lean yearsin Bhamo, and, finally, the long stretch in Shanghai, devoted to administra-tive work. The human side rather than the official is emphasized, andpathetic glimpses are given us here and there of that great burden ofmissionary life—loneliness.

still be impartial on the questions included in the position of China andher contacts with Japan." The aim frankly is to educate the people in

the United States to a realization of the true position of Japan as theauthor sees it, the latter people having done everything in their power tokeep us in ignorance of what is actually happening in China. The real

issue is between militarism, or Japanese interests, and democracy, orChinese interests. Japan is unquestionably efficient, but so was Germany;her policy during the war, of self-aggrandizement, of secret diplomacy,of oblique methods, was ruthless, as was that of Germany. The situationof China in the war, her fear of Japan, and the ignoring of her by theAllies is dealt with at length.

_The corrupting of the country systematically

carried on by Japan, the Siberian question, and the future possibilities

to the world if China were given a "square deal" are all touched upon.It is a case of special pleading without doubt, but the pleading is wellbacked by texts of official documents, and by proved facts.

C1919, PP- 250. $1.50.

It was due to a letter from Miss Noyes that in 187 1 the founding ofthe True Light Seminary became one of the first of the special objectstaken up by the Woman's Board in Philadelphia of the PresbyterianChurch, U. S. A. It was largely due to her guidance that it grew to besuch a power for good in Canton. She gives us the history of its growthin vivid pictures rather than in formal historical form, endeavoring thusto make the reader feel the atmosphere, and comprehend the aim of thework. The chief aim has been to make the seminary as far as possiblean evangelistic agency, for which reason children of both Christian andheathen parents have been received, the whole number of students whohave been enrolled being 3,724. Of this number, 915 have united withthe church. Perhaps the best means of gauging the influence of the schoolis found in the lives of those trained there; so Miss Noyes gives manysketches of the work of the Bible Women, the Christian leaders, the nurses,and the medical students. The book is well illustrated.

The author concludeswith recommendations that international capital and educative forces co-operate rather than compete in their efforts to develop China in the future.

Periodical Articles

ARNOLD, Julean. China's economic problems and Christian mis-sionary effort. (The Chinese Recorder, August, 1919, pp. 515-

524.)

One of the most important articles which has appeared in the Recorderthis year. Mr. Arnold, the American Commercial attache for China,frankly and sympathetically discusses the missionary situation. Present-day China is a new China, marvelously wealthy in natural resources,with a wonderful future in the modern economic world. The great gulfbetween her and Western industrial development is partially shown in

the fact that the nation and the communities have not as yet enactedfactory legislation, made provision for sanitation in connection with theircivic and industrial life, or developed a body of corporate law. Theresulting problems, as well as the great one of transportation, willinevitably be solved, and China will be revolutionized in the process. Butare the mission forces alive to the demands these tremendous economicchanges will create? The important thing is what will the Chinese dofor themselves; that will depend upon native leadership; and thatin turn may be determined by the work of missionaries if they are bigenough men and women, with a big enough policy to which they willadhere strongly. Missionaries that are narrow-minded, stagnating, setin their ways, or without vision should be retired at once; the youngmissionaries should be given a much broader training. The lack ofco-ordination in mission work, the duplication and waste are striking,while there should be a far larger friendship with foreign mercantile com-munities and Chinese prominent in business and other walks of life.

Christian missionary effort is facing a serious crisis, and supreme effortsshould be put forth; no man or woman is too big for the work, for thefield cries out for inspired, Christian trained native leaders.

BUCK, T. L. Practical plans for the introduction of agricultureinto our middle and primary schools. (The Chinese Recorder,May, 1 919, pp. 307-319.)

Agriculture as a part of mission work has achieved a definite place.Already six agricultural missionaries are in China, while the demand inmission schools for a text-book on agriculture, or a teacher of the subject,is more and more insistent. There are two main phases for the mission-ary work in agriculture—the strengthening of the educational program,and the introduction of agriculture into evangelistic missions as extensionwork. The chief problem in introducing it practically into the schoolsis the securing of adequately trained native Christian teachers. Mr. Bucksuggests that this need be met by establishing two first class agriculturalhigh schools, with normal training; and, until these are sending forth

126 SELECTED BlSLIOGkAFHY

graduates, by establishing a teachers' training course in school-gardening,nature study and general agriculture at some suitable center or centers.

BURGESS, J. S. The Christianization of life in China. (TheChinese Recorder, April, 1919, pp. 221-226.)

There is evident increasing dissatisfaction with the role that is beingplayed by the Chinese Church so far as it relates to community better-ment. There is a self-centered tendency to cut themselves off from theirChinese fellows found among the Christians which results not only intheir making no social effort (such as opening wholesome recreation centerswhich shall be also for the non-Christians of the community) but at timeseven in their not knowing what movements are going on around themagainst which the church might protest. To remedy this the church musthave a vision of what social service may mean, and this, it is noticeable,the strong lay leaders seem to realize far more fully than the Chineseclergy.

CHAO, K. C. The ideals of new China. (The Chinese Recorder,January, 1919, pp. 11-19.)

Mr. Chao briefly surveys the social, political, and_spiritual problems

in awakening China, and the ideals of Young China in regard to them.Firmly believing that China will take her place among the strong nationsof the world, he points out her great need, in order to accomplish this,

of developing moral backbone, and finds her only hope for this in heracceptance of Christianity.

CHENG, C. Y. The Chinese Christian church and national move-ments. (The Chinese Recorder, July, 1919, pp. 456-460.)

The Rev. Dr. Cheng is connected with the London Missionary Society,has been a pastor of the Independent Church, Peking, and is now ChineseSecretary of the China Continuation Committee. He therefore speakswith authority. The title of his article, however, is somewhat misleading.He chiefly describes and justifies the patriotic protest of the Chinesestudents against the Tsingtao decision of the Paris Conference, and theirsuccessful demand that the government remove the three chief pro-Japanese officials. The movement resulted in a general strike of govern-ment and mission students, and a boycott among the commercial classesthroughout the country of Japanese goods. As the Christian Church standsfor truth and righteousness, it naturally welcomed a movement promptedby pure democratic ideals, but the church does not take sides in party,politics. The conflict was not that of Chinese against Japanese, but of aright idea against a militaristic or wrong one. But the Chinese Christianswere right to take part in the movement, in upholding real patriotismand high ideals for their country, since Christianity seeks to work forthe salvation of the individual, the society, the nation, and the world.

DICKSON, E. J. M. A case of real self-support. (The ChineseRecorder, June, 1919, pp. 392-399.)

It is, of course, the ultimate aim of all mission work to develop a self-

supporting church, but opinions as to methods differ. Dr. Dickson heredescribes how he set out, independently of all mission societies, to preacha gospel which should purify the lives of the hearers and make themvoluntarily support any Christian work undertaken. By selling ordinarydrugs, such as epsom salts and quinine, he supported himself, and hadopportunities to preach and sell gospels. Poseh, near Yunnan, he madehis headquarters. As a result of his work, this town now has a self-

supporting and self-governing church with fourteen baptized members,and an average weekly contribution of 25 cents per member.

DOVEY, J. W. A policy for the distribution of Chinese Christian

literature. (The Chinese Recorder, July, 1919, pp. 473-479-)

The problem of the production of Christian literature has been search-ingly investigated by the Literature Council of the China ContinuationCommittee. Supplementary to its report, Mr. Dovey, General Managerof the Mission Book Company, Shanghai, here gives a policy of distribut-

ing the literature produced. At present, over 50 per cent of the Christianliterature in China is sold retail at Shanghai, and the 25 odd smallmission book-stores scattered over the country are carrying only a minimumpart of what they should. To remedy this, there should be greaterpublicity (now partially met by the new "China Bookman"), and greaterco-operation in selling between the different societies. It should also bepossible for Christian business men to make a living at selling this

literature, which would mean an increase in catalogued prices in orderto allow reasonable discount and fair profit to the local dealer. Thisraising of prices v/ith the subsequent discount policy would also help tosolve the problem of relationships between Christian publishing societies

and the existing Chinese book stores.

KULP, D. H. (II). A sociological apologetic for Christianpropaganda in China. (The Chinese Recorder, February, 1919,

pp. 88-94.)

Jesus emphasized the fact that salvation is individual and social;

Christianity in China, therefore, is very definitely committed to makecontributions to the social life of the Chinese. Neither Buddhism norTaoism has a strong social gospel, and socialization, the placing of skill,

brains, and resources, at the service of society instead of the individual,is the great need at present in China. It is possible for social economyto effect social progress without Christianity. The material developmentof the country, the openingof mines, the building of railways, is inevitable,and China can not escape it if she would. But in a new age of progressa new set of adequate and vital controls must be set up or demoralizationof society and race degeneration must result. Christianity is funda-mentally concerned with the ultimate values to society of all socialprogress; and this is why China (as well as the rest of the world) needsChristianity.

KUO, P. W. The future place of education in China. (TheChinese Recorder, January, 1919, pp. 20-24.)

The importance of education as emphasized by the World War has ledthe Chinese government to adopt a definite forward educational policy.In this article note is made of what constitutes this forward movement,and the necessity of raising the standard of the Christian educational workin China in order to meet the modern needs.

MACNAUGHTON, W. The evangelization of provinces—Man-churia. (The Chinese Recorder, February, 1919, pp. 81-88.)

The author, who is evangelistic secretary of Manchuria, views theproblems of evangelizing China by considering those of this one province.The primary necessity is for the workers to look up from their workand consider a definite policy. The occupation of strategic centers by theforeign forces, with the present dangers of large areas and small forces;the utilizing of the potentialities for service in the individuals forming theChinese Church; the necessity of arousing the Chinese leaders to seek towin more men instead of being satisfied with preaching at those alreadyin the church; all these are fundamentals to a forward policy. Closelyrelated are the inherent possibilities of great usefulness in the ChineseMissionary Societies, the evangelistic bands, the Chinese doctor evangelists,and the forward movement campaigns. All these considerations showthat the task is tremendous, and the situation ripe for a big movement.

PLANS OF THE CHRISTIAN LITERATURE COUNCIL INCHINA. (The International Review of Missions, April, 1919.

pp. 238-253.)

This article shows the processes of international missionary co-operationin the actual working, and consists of letters from the chairman of theChristian Literature Council for China, the acting secretary of the ChinaContinuation Committee, a minute of the American section of the Com-mission on Christian Literature of the World Missionary Conference, anda minute of the Committee on Christian Literature in Great Britain. Theletter from the Christian Literature Council gives the results of a thoroughsurvey of the literature situation in China, the needs of which come underfour headings. 1. The discovery and development of Chinese Christianliterary talent. This problem could be attacked by means of prizes,the opening of a Christian Literature Correspondence School, and scholar-ships to be conditional on the recipients specializing along literary lines.

2. The survey and correlation of Christian literary effort, with the aim oflearning the types of literature most urgently needed. 3. The early produc-tion of this most urgently needed literature, attention now to be focused onannotated Scriptures for the educated classes, literature for evangelisticcampaigns, for the illiterate, for women and children, for young people,devotional literature, that for Chinese pastors, and that giving the socialapplication of Christianity. 4. The establishment of a Christian PressBureau for China, to supply to the press the best thought of Christianleaders^ in China and in other countries on matters of current interest.

A minimum budget for the whole program is appended. The action ofthe international bodies approving this report concludes the article.

This is the Continuation Committee of the National Conference heldat Shanghai in 19 13, and is one of the finest examples of union workon the mission field. Its work is far reaching and its results are heresurveyed briefly. The Forward Evangelistic Movement, the undertakingof a comprehensive survey of existing missionary work, the compiling ofaccurate statistics; the work on the subjects of comity, of training mis-sionaries, and of producing Christian literature; the stud}7 of theologicaleducation, of mission administration, of work for Moslems; the compilingof the China Mission Year Book and the Chinese Church Year Book, andthe making possible a feasible procedure in regard to phonetic writing, all

these are definite results of this Committee's arduous work. The surveyhere presented should be supplemented by the article following it, namely,"Progressive plans for Christian work in China as seen in the reports ofthe China Continuation Committee."

STOCK, Eugene. Hudson Taylor and the China Inland Mission.(The East and The West, April, 1919, pp. 97-114.)

One of the greatest of missionary names is that of Hudson Taylor,most of whose work was done outside the old order of the Church. Hefirst went to China in 1853, and in i860 was invalided home, where heprayed so continually about China that in 1866 he was able to start backto 'the country with fifteen co-workers. This was the beginning of thegreat C. I. M., founded on the principles which have ever been unswerv-ingly adhered to— (a) no restriction as to denomination provided therewas soundness of the faith in all fundamental truths; (b) no guaranteeof income; (c) no collections or personal solicitation of money. In regard

to certain methods of work, Hudson Taylor laid down the principles thatthe missionaries to China should become as the Chinese in dress, food,and customs where possible; that, with due precaution, unmarried womenshould be sent to the interior; that, as fresh parties from England arrivedthey should be sent two and two to the far interior. These were revo-lutionary ideas, and Mr. Stock gives us a brief description of some ofthe difficulties encountered in carrying them out.

STUART, J. L. Man-power in Christian warfare. (The ChineseRecorder, February, 1919, pp. 104-110.)

It is in the air, just now, to draw breath and take stock, as it were,of one's forces. Dr. Stuart, glancing at the results of some hundredyears of Protestant missionary effort in China, finds the tangible resultsvery meagre. Moreover, the entire country is in dire plight, sufferingfrom intensified forms of old-time corruption and superstition with^ manyWestern vices added; and yet, with an opening to Christianity hithertounequalled. One of the fundamental causes for failure so far Dr. Stuartfinds in the lack of comprehensive planning for an adequately trainedChinese ministry. Four lines of attack on this problem are suggested:1. That each missionary feel an individual responsibility to secure abetter quality of man power in the native ministry. 2. That mission fundsbe so re-adjusted that there be sufficient money available for securing,training, and supporting capable Chinese students, even at the sacrificeof the foreign missionary force. 3. That the teaching in theologicalcolleges be made to measure up to the very highest standard set anywherein the world. 4. That the student Volunteer Movement for the Ministrybe given all possible help and sympathy.

he considers the necessary elements for the future. These he finds to beuncompromising Christian integrity, thorough scientific training, andemphasis on the development of Christian social leadership.

POLE, G. H. The "new" Japanese national cult. (The ChurchMissionary Review, June, 1919, pp. 127-135.)

The Rev. Pole finds this new "cult" in Japan strikingly analogous to

the cult of emperor-worship as it existed in the Roman Empire in thefirst three centuries A. D. Notwithstanding its modern government theJapanese imperial authority unquestionably reaches out into the moraland spiritual domain, and the Government has five aims in view in its

promotion of this "cult"; i: to maintain that traditional spirit which is

considered the soul of the nation; 2: to realize a national unity and to

bind by sacred ties the people and their Emperor; 3: to provide an ideal,

something recognized as necessary for the well-being of society; 4: to

emphasize unity and patriotism in one "cult," since to do so in one"religion" is impossible; 5: to constitute thereby a dam against foreignideas believed to be subversive of social order. The non-religious char-acter of the cult being contradicted by the required worship at shrines, theauthor foresees grave difficulties ahead for Christianity in Japan.

TROLLOPE, M. N. Progress in Corea. (The East and TheWest, July, 1919, pp. 246-257.)

After a very sketchy outline ofpast history, the situation or development is considered along the lines of:(a) the organization into a whole of detached mission stations; (b) educa-tion, showing how the English Church is co-operating with the Japaneseeducational scheme by means of student-hostels; (c) training of nativeclergy; (d) self-support, in which the English mission has made consider-able progress; (e) Church government; (f) Japanese work. Despite thetremendous handicap of the war, with its serious drain on an already in-adequate force, considerable progress has been made, and the missionstands ready for a big advance on a solid basis, thanks to the enforcedintensive, rather than extensive cultivation.

S. missionary in the country,takes up the questions which the man on the street is asking, and out-lines briefly an explanation of the difficulties therein expressed. The land,the different races, the religions, and the missionary work are all touchedupon, and the Zionist movement is sympathetically, albeit not very hope-fully discussed.

WINGATE, Sir Andrew. Palestine, Mesopotamia, and the Jews.The spiritual side of history, with a synopsis of the war.London, Alfred Holness, 1919, pp. 290. 5/-.

A rather disjointed work. It is somewhat tantalizing in that, assumingconsiderable knowledge on the part of the reader, the conclusions areobvious and somewhat superficial. On the other hand, for one withouta fairly rich background, it is confusing and inconclusive. Nevertheless,it gives fairly a spiritual criticism of the warring countries which haveinfluenced Palestine and Mesopotamia, provided we interpret spiritual assynonymous with biblical. It is well illustrated, and has an excellentchronological table of the war. The author idealizes, it might almost besaid idolizes, Great Britain throughout.

BUXTON, Harold. Armenia and the peace settlement. (TheEast and The West, January, 1919, pp. 10-18.)

"To the moral conscience of Europe, the sufferings of Armenia mustremain an unforgetable horror," and to disregard the voice of conscienceis to stifle the greatest safeguard of Christian peoples. That Armeniastill needs and deserves our help is evident in this survey of the situation.She is delivered from Turkish slavery, delivered by Christian, Moham-medan, Arabian, and Indian troops, but before her deliverance she hadtaken her stand for righteousness, and had fought hard on the Caucasianfront. As a result, the Ottoman Armenians were systematically murderedby the Turkish government. There are scattered remnants left in theRussian Caucasus, in Persia (where an American relief unit is working),in Mesopotamia (where starvation has been terrible), and in Palestine.The responsibility for permanent relief and repatriation must rest with theallied Powers, but there are needed also philanthropic agencies. Besidesimmediate relief for the starving, besides the political settlement, there is

desperate need of healing for the spirit of the nation in love, in workdone in the spirit of love, and in offers of personal service abroad.

ZWEMER, S. M. Islam, the war, and missions. (The ChurchMissionary Review, September, 1919, pp. 209-225.)

A discussion of the future for Moslem evangelization in view of theLeague of Nations and the new internationalism. The war has seen thecollapse of Moslem political power, but as an intellectual and spiritual

empire Islam still exists. The distribution of Moslems, and the possi-

bility of their drawing together in face of a common peril, along withthe reluctance of governments to take any action that might lead to apolitical complication, place a serious problem before the church as wellas an "open door." Dr. Zwemer gives a survey of the situation beforethe armistice, showing the seething unrest of the Moslem world, thedifferent government policies pursued, and the German plan for a generalMoslem uprising. There follows a bird's-eye view, country by country,of the present situation and the attitude of the people during the wai,ending with a summary of the dangers and opportunities to be franklyfaced. It is true that British occupation of Egypt has strengthened Islamthere. There is grave danger of the same happening in Palestine, Syria,Persia, and the former Ottoman Empire. The sacred places, shrines and

while there may be the policy of rewarding their loyalty (not oftenspontaneous, nor always genuine) by pampering Moslem prejudices.

Some people travel, some go on personally conducted tours, but ononly a few have the gods bestowed the gift—and the opportunity—of prowl-ing. To the author, Panama is the great American curiosity shop; it is also"the net result of a continuous and consistent follow-up campaign ofwholesale demoralization through a long period of years." The prowlerin this case certainly found much to interest him; not only the pleasingidiosyncrasies of the people, with their abounding imagination, makingup for their utter ignorance of their _ country; their uniformly courteousofficials; and their never failing mystification over the "hurry" of travel-lers; but also in the wonderful possibilities of the country, in the richresources of the interior, and in the need of the people. Eighty per centof those in the provinces were found to be suffering with hookworm, becausethe common people know nothing of sanitation and clean food. Yet, if

the author be correct, the Panamanians are not the only ones who areignorant; many of us Americans have not even discovered that there is aLatin America. This book should at least make a little more definite inour minds that "hazy and troubled region southward about which we haveknown little and cared less."

the life of the people as seen by an outsider. A separate chapter is

devoted to each of the five countries, but the major part of the bookdeals with Central America as a unit. Central American revolutions aredisliked and feared by the great majority of the people, but their in-

heritance of exploitation by the Spaniards seems to prevent them frommaking any concerted opposition to the politicians in charge of therevolutions. Ignorance and indifference of the masses are found every-where, and are largely responsible for the instability of governments.This latter should eventually yield to education, as is proved by theimprovement in the Isthmus. ' The influence of the United States, and theantagonism aroused by its opportunist policy of protection is well summedup, while our international responsibility to keep the peace is fullyrecognized. The economic condition is frankly considered very seriousand fundamental, yet not so hopeless but that the standard of living forthe mass of the people may eventually be raised.

For some time there has been a need for a brief, readable, and accuratehistory of Latin America. Professor Sweet, of DePauw University, hasattempted to meet this need, preparing the book primarily for studentsand teachers, yet keeping in mind also the more general reader.^ Aftera brief chapter devoted to the Spanish and Portuguese characteristics as aback-ground, the colonization is considered in four divisions, (a) thatof the Islands and the Isthmus, (b) the conquests of Mexico, Peru, andChile, (c) the founding of the agricultural Colonies of Venezuela,Colombia, and La Plata, and (d) the Portuguese colonization of Brazil.Following the wars of Independence, the countries naturally fell into twogroups, the backward states and the progressive states. The latter partof the book is good for reference purposes, but makes for uninterestinggeneral reading. Good maps and bibliographies help to make this anexcellent text-book.

WILLIAMS, M. N. The least of these—in Colombia. NewYork, Revell, C1918, pp. 183. $1.25.

As the foreword warns us, this book is concrete and specific; it is

highly specialized, dealing with a particular group of a particular class

of people in Colombia, namely, the servants of the author. Yet the little

incidents related give a sharply outlined view of certain missionaryproblems typical of the country. The immorality resulting from economicpressure, the lack of standards, the prevailing drunkenness, the lack ofresponsibility, and the appalling superstition form a dark, almost hopelesspicture. The high lights are found in the cheerfulness of the peopleunder intolerable conditions, in their loyalty, unselfishness, and lovingsympathy. The book is in the way of being an enlightening foot-note onmissionary work in Latin America.

For thirty years, this pioneer missionary has worked among the SouthAmerican aborigines, and ranks today as the greatest living authorityon the subject. He points out that very little interest is taken in theSouth American Indian, and yet in him lies a possible solution of thequestion of populating and thus of increasing the producing capacity ofthe Continent. Some of the Indians have taken to civilized work insettled sections, and politically they are no longer classed as Indians,but as citizens. But there are from two to three million heathen "wildtribes," ranging from very low savages to fine people quite capable ofculture. They are by law outlaws. Yet the work of the South AmericanMissionary Society, working along sound practical lines, and emphasizingindustrial missions has been so successful, and so influential for good

that it has won to friendliness the Paraguayan, Argentine, and Boliviangovernments. Only industrial missions will succeed. The cost is heavy,however, for not only a church but a whole civilization must be built upfor these wild tribes. The Indian must eventually come in contact withthe settlers; and Mr. Grubb closes his articles with a plea for Christiansettlers who will band together and found Christian colonies, thus helpingthe professional missionary enterprise to cover the great extent of land,and to solve the many other almost insurmountable difficulties.

The Philippines Legislature believes the time has now comefor the fulfillment of this pledge, and the author here places before us therecord of what the Filipino people have done since the establishmentof their autonomy, and their reasons for now asking for separation. Theestablishment and organization of the government, the economic develop-ment of the country, the progress of local government, and the attitudeof the Filipinos during the war are all concisely and clearly described,making an excellent presentation of their case. The treatment of thenon-Christian tribes is well summarized, and gives a good back-groundfor all missionary work that must be conducted among them.

WHITE, Gilbert. Thirty years in tropical Australia. London,Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1918, pp. 264. 10/6.(New York, Macmillan. $3.75.)

*

For the first half of this period, Bishop White worked in Queensland asa priest; during the last fifteen years he served as Bishop of Carpentariain Northern Australia. The book shows a wide appreciation of thecountry's difficulties, and touches frankly on both the white and the blackproblems. The work can be better appreciated by first gaining someknowledge of Australian missions, such as is given in the same author's"Round About the Torres Strait," published in 1917. But that is notnecessary thoroughly to enjoy his descriptions, especially of the aborigines.These he does not hold to be of the very lowest type of humanity, anopinion often advanced by scientists; his attitude seems to be that this is"all very well in theory, but it is not so in fact!" as shown by the nativeswho have tak~n responsible positions in the mission stations. There is

an excellent chapter on "A white Australia," which policy the Bishop

finds justifiable only if the white man "admits he owes special duties toless fortunate peoples, and especially to the less advanced colored racesof the East."

Periodical ArticlesLONG, G. M. "White Australia." (The East and The West,

October, 1919, pp. 289-296.)

The Bishop of Bathurst disclaims writing an apologia for a "WhiteAustralia" policy; he merely attempts here to show how and why the policyis maintained. It is the inflexible will of the country rigidly to excludeimmigrants of non-European origin, and this despite the clamant needof the country for population. This decision is based on: 1. the political

need of keeping the government in the hands of those whose inheritanceincludes the instincts of justice and self-government; and the dangerof a small ruling class of Whites, and a large mixed colored population;2. the dangers and problems arising from the miscegenation of widelydisparate races; 3. the endeavor to make prevail the white man's highstandard of living for the workman and the danger to this that wouldresult from flooding the country with Asiatic labor. To the criticism thatthis policy is anti-Christian the Australian replies that the country canmake its noblest contribution to the developing life of the Orient, aswell as to the peace and happiness of the whole world, by maintainingin their purity the ideals, the form, and the manner of a distinctivelyEuropean civilization in the Far East.

RELIGIONSBooksBARTON, J. L. The Christian approach to Islam. Boston,Pilgrim Press, C1918, pp. 316. $2.00.

External history of Islam,from its beginning to the failure of the Holy War, the attitude of thescattered Moslems, and the revolt of Arabia. II. Mohammedanism asa religion, giving the distinctive Mohammedan beliefs, the beliefs commonwith Christianity, and the various reform attempts. III. Relations toChristianity, with the change from intense antagonism to a gradual dis-

appearance of hatred and discontent. It is an important study of Chris-tianity's message to Mohammedans, and a ringing call for a definitecampaign planned on a true appreciation of present day needs, ratherthan on the traditional attitude. The arrangement is rather loose, andthe reading at times difficult, but for those who are following seriouslythe Moslem problem the book is invaluable.

A thoughtful discussion in non-technical language, with frequentcitations from recent publications. The importance to be attached tothe study of animism is indicated by the fact "that over half thepopulation of the globe is animistic in its main features of faith andaction, that a large part of humanity entertain beliefs only one removeaway from this and regards as fundamental a philosophy of life groundedin animistic thought, and that at least three basal tenets of Christianityitself are common to Christians and animists."

author, who is Professor of Sanskrit and Comparative Philology at YaleUniversity, has summed up the best explanations and criticisms of thevarious religions,- past and present, supplementing each chapter with anexcellent bibliography. He has consistently refrained from drawing anyconclusions, treating each religion with the same detachment, almostimpassivity. His statements of facts are valuable, but he makes noattempt to show the reader the living soul of any faith. Judged from acoldly intellectual point of view, Christianity is "more intense and broaderthan any other"; that it is more dynamic, or has any higher authoritythan any other Dr. Hopkins apparently considers beside the point.

The Yezidiz are a small and obscure religious sect, most of whom are in

the mountains of northern and central Kurdistan. Despite the interestwhich their mysterious religion has aroused, very little is known about it,

almost the only certain thing being that it contains Moslem, hereticalChristian, pagan, and perhaps Persian elements. The first part of this

book contains the translation of one of the Arabic manuscripts of theYezidiz; one of their poems, their principal prayer, and their articles offaith, with explanatory notes. Part II is a critical discussion of theirreligion, religious observances, and the various explanations of themgiven by religious scholars. So brief a book is necessarily in the natureof an outline, but an excellent bibliography helps those desiring to makea more thorough investigation of the subject.

This is a valuable book for those working among thoughtful Hindus.After fifteen years in India, the author has come to the conclusion that aradical transformation of Indian thought will be necessary if India is toadvance mentally, morally, and religiously, and this book has been writtento indicate the necessity for this transformation. Hindu philosophy is

sympathetically treated, for every effort is made to present the bestaspects of it, but the showing is clear that it does not meet the needs oflife. The work is carefully done, with constant references to authorities,and the value of the whole is enhanced by an excellent index.

A discussion by a lecturer at Noble College, Masulipatam, India, ofhow "to retain the rich fringe of the Indian corporate religious life" inorder to make Christianity a little less barren and "western" to theIndian convert. Love of ceremonies with life, color, and movement beingingrained in the Indian, would it not be better psychologically to retainas much of this as possible for the native church? Care should be taken,however, not to think out the problem from the Western point of view.Isolated attempts at making this enrichment to Christian native life by theS. P. G. in its annual fair, by the Methodist Community at Cawnpore,in its anniversary procession around the city, and by the WesleyanMethodists in the State of Hyderabad, are noted. The Roman Catholicsmake great efforts to preserve a ceremonial setting for all the churchfestivals. But there is need for more general recognition of the fact thatthe East needs color, light, and crowds for its life.

MASON, I. Chinese Mohammedanism. (The Chinese Recorder,March, 1919, pp. 176-187; April, 1919, pp. 242-247.)

The number of Moslems in China can at best be only estimated, butit seems safe to consider that there are at least 8,000,000. The numberof missionaries definitely working to win them is very small, while liter-

ature_for them is almost non-existent. After a

_very brief summary of

the history of the sect in China, Mr. Mason discusses certain of theirbeliefs and practices as they exist in that country. After mentioningtheir conception of the unity of God, their belief in angels, and a pre-existent supernatural world, he gives translations of some of their reason-ing against Christianity. Particularly enlightening is a brochure writtenin 1 9 14 concerning Jesus and his reported crucifixion and resurrection.The five practices—or Five Pillars of the Faith—are sketched; purifica-

tion, prayer, almsgiving, fasting, and pilgrimage; and there follows thetranslation of a tract summarizing the position of the Chinese Moslem,entitled "The Root of all Goodness," ending with a beautiful Moslemprayer.

The present inadequacy of missionary teaching for children is becomingincreasingly evident; and so Professor Cock, acting professor of Educationand Philosophy at University College, Southampton, here pleads for therecognition of the value of the missionary story in any reconstruction ofprimary and secondary education. Its essential appropriateness is evident,for Christian schools and Christian education require the Christian story.Moreover, the missionary story links inevitably with our knowledge ofhistory, and of geography, while it is rich supplementary material for theteaching of literature. Its psychological appeal to the love of adventure,of movement, and of continued stories well adapts it for use in movingpictures. It is also of unexampled value in teaching world citizenshipand sympathy for other races. Above all, "education is a spiritual process,and mission study and story yield a cumulative spiritual value of theutmost importance to the growing religious experience of the child."

The challenge of Christian countries at war with each other has forcedthe realization that our normal standards differ from those of God. Thequestion should be squarely faced, therefore: is the missionary effort apurely human activity, or in spite of all defects, is it the expression ofsomething belonging to the being and character of God Himself? Theanswer lies in our conception of the nature of God as a Being in the heartof the struggle of mankind; of the nature of Jesus, as truly God andtruly man; of our own nature as human beings with the power to questionand to choose, and the consequent responsibility for our actions. Themissionary obligation is inherent and fundamental in each nature.

(The International Review of Missions, April, 1919, pp. 145-154.)

The war has caused the very foundations of the_ world to be questioned.Is blind matter omnipotent? If so, reconstruction is not only useless

but wrong. Is it a gamble whether or not there is such a thing asrealizing an ideal civilization? If so, strenuous effort is worth while, butto the thoughtful by no means satisfying. In the last analysis, searchersfor a stable foundation are driven to despair or to faith; and Christianfaith alone makes its appeal to these searchers who desire a world thatis orderly, kindly, and brotherly. An orderly world must assume theorganic unity of ethical values—God is one. The Christian ideal thoroughlyinterpreted must work to subdue strife through kinship with the Father

to create a kindly world. A democratic world, i. e., a brotherly world,must follow where is applied the ideal of the God who, through Christ,dwells among men as Comrade, not suppressing their individualities, notbreaking their wills, but encouraging them to their fullest developmentas sons and daughters.

The last three words of the title are almost equally emphasized in thearticle. Successfully to develop such an organization there must first ofall be presented to the Church definitely and concretely an adequate worldprogram, this program to be the result of a thorough-going survey of theactual condition of the world, accompanied by definite statements of methodsfor meeting the needs thus revealed. There must then be developed in theChurch an intelligent interest in the program. The people should beshown why the program should be undertaken, and leaders should betrained for this purpose. The program must be accepted willingly, andso it must be proved to the people that it is reasonable. The social traits

of character, those concerning our relations with our fellows, must betrained, in some cases even awakened, and then definitely converted intoaction.

According to the standard of the poor and simple, well-to-doChurch members have scarcely begun to give. 2. Sources of service. Sofar, men in the prime^ of life are so negligible a source of missionarygiving that the deduction is logical that the missionary cause has beenso presented as to win the weaker rather than the stronger. 3.

Yet the mission field exacts a severe toll from the worker both in

142 SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY

body and in spirit, and it is the business of the church at home tohelp make good this toll. Study comes to the foreground since mostmissionaries have given out so much, or have missed so much, as to beempty mentally or spiritually. Some know what is best to do for theirindividual needs, and are able to do it. Others must receive advice andhelp from the church. This touches closely the problem of deputationwork; but while much of this is to be deplored from the point of viewof the worker, some of it is necessary to make him review his work, andgain the proper perspective. After all, the dominating issue is the out-look; he comes home to go through another period of preparation for his

task. With this kept in view, the problems relative to rest and workare easier to solve.

MACLEAN, J. H. Missionary apologetics. (The InternationalReview of Missions, July, 1919, pp. 387-397.)

Despite recent events, despite the mission study movement, there is still

a surprising vogue in objections to missions. Rejecting reliance on theGreat Command (the_ authenticity of which having been seriously chal-lenged), and maintaining that the missionary obligation expresses the wholespirit of Christ's life, Mr. Maclean sketches briefly a normal attitude totake to such critics. Even admitting that all that has so far been donehas been a failure (which Mr. Maclean does not), this high ground formissionary work still remains binding, and it is the methods, not thefundamental obligation which are at fault. But instead of being on thedefensive, the missionary apologist has good ground for attack if he knowsfacts, while the results of missions, poor and imperfect as they may be,

yet form one of the strongest proofs possible that Jesus is the Word ofGod.

MATHEWS, Basil. Some unoccupied fields at the home base.

(The International Review of Missions, January, 1919, pp.104-117.)

Strictly speaking, the fields are preoccupied rather than unoccupied.There is that of the educationalist, and in particular the day school teacher,who exercises a continuous influence on the developing life of the nation.This field can be occupied if missionary material is presented which is

of unquestionably high pedagogic value. There is the merchant, pre-

occupied with world markets. The approach to him should be uncompro-misingly Christian, presenting missions as a world program and a worldcampaign. He has no patience with small issues. There is the skilledartisan whom the Church may find cold, but who is roused to enthusiasm bypractical projects for the establishment of a just and ordered life in hisown country and in the world. This class must be shown that theirideals and those of missions are fundamentally identical. And they canbe shown this best through the fourth field, the press. For this, what is

needed is to organize the supply of material so that swiftly and withfreshness and real knowledge it may be prepared and "handed out" to

the press.

OLDHAM, J. H.^Co-operation—its necessity and cost. (The In-

ternational Review of Missions, April, 1919, pp. 173-192.)

This discusses the question whether the time has come for missionarysocieties deliberately and definitely to include the work which can best oronly be done by joint committees as an essential part of their program.Fundamentally, the

_question is one of finance. Experience has proved

to missionary societies the value of co-operation in certain fields—e. g.,

the myriad and extraordinarily important relationships between missionsand governments, the raising of the quality of educational and medicalwork necessitated by the entrance of non-religious institutions in thesefields, the provision of adequate Christian literature, and the necessityfor a bolder and stronger presentation of the missionary appeal at thehome base. A sound policy for support of co-operation would be; (1)

SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY 143

a fixed amount contributed by all societies on a proportionate basis fordefinite administrative expenses; (2) further contributions from time to

time when societies feel it to their advantage to co-operate in special

undertakings; (3) individual gifts to funds of which the ultimate controlwould be in the hands of the Conference of Missionary Societies in GreatBritain and the Foreign Missions Conference of North America.

PATTON, C. H. and HAYWARD, J. N. Life and work in

mission houses. (The International Review of Missions, Janu-ary, 1919, pp. 71-87.)

This article is in two parts, dealing with mission houses in Americaand in London. Dr. Patton, of the A. B. C. F. M., speaks for America,giving the ideal towards which our houses should work. This he findsmeans that the mission house should be (a) an up-to-date, thorough-going,efficiently managed business office; (b) a house serving as head-quartersand meeting-place of missionaries home on furlough, with a rest-room,requisite office-space, and other facilities ministering to his comfort andconvenience; and (c) a religious institution in which every worker, fromthe highest to the lowest, is imbued with the happy appreciation of the"worth-while-ness" of the work. Mr. Hayward, of the China InlandMission, takes up the same three points, in reverse order, and tells ofactual conditions existing in English mission-houses.

RITSON, J. H. The growth of missionary co-operation since

1910. (The International Review of Missions, January, 1919,

PP. 53-70.)

This is concerned primarily with the international as opposed to nationalaspects of missionary co-operation, but force of circumstances results indescriptions of the English situation. The great executive instrument,in England, of international co-operation was the outgrowth of the attemptto perpetuate the work of the Edinburgh Conference—namely, the Con-tinuation Committee. In 1914 the war interrupted the work of this bodyas a whole, but did not kill it. The organ of this Committee is the inter-national periodical "The International Review of Missions." Centralorganizations have been formed in China, Japan, and India; the ChristianCollege for Women in Madras has been founded; the problem of Christianliterature in the mission field has been attacked. Problems arising directlyfrom the war are too great for any but international co-operative handling,while the war itself forced the formation of an "Emergency Committee ofCo-operating Missions."

SHEFFIELD, Mrs. D. Z. The wives of missionaries. (TheChinese Recorder, March, 1919, pp. 162-176.)

No definite work in the mission station is assigned by the Boards tothe wives of missionaries. Believing that valuable service is thus lost,

and that the missionary inspiration as such of the wife is not given a fairchance at development, Mrs. Sheffield discusses fundamentally the questionof her status, preparation, and work. She asks for a more uniformopportunity for the consecration of all the talents of the wife, both on thefield, and during the first furlough home, equal to that given to thehusband.

SHILLITO, Edward. The appeal of the missionary enterpriseto the man of 1919. (The International Review of Missions,January, 191 9, pp. 18-26.)

One of the directors of the London Missionary Society here seeks tofind the common ground of interest between the witness of Christ, i. e.,the Church, and the man whose soul is reacting to the absorbing experi-ence and desperate tragedy of the war. The trouble that vexes the manis his fear for the human race, while it is an axiom to him that the

144 SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY

redemption of Christ cannot be enjoyed by any unless it is an effectiveoffer for all. The relations of races one to the other is the fundamentalproblem for the future of the world. Isolation, relation of master andbond-servant, teacher and taught, father and child, have all been triedand have failed. Mutual brotherhood through mutual service is the solu-tion offered by the Church, through its magnificent and daring missionarywork.

SPEER, R. E. Organization and life. (The International Re-view of Missions, January, 1919, pp. 27-38.)

Business methods, institutions, organization prevail everywhere. YetJesus would have none of it, and St. Paul, although a great organizer,subordinated it all to his own personal influence. Organization is inevitableand right, yet the missionary work is so clogged with it that it is sufferingfrom wrong proportion, ineffectiveness, secularization and mechanicaliza-tion. The chief remedy for this Dr. Speer finds in being uncompromisinglytrue to the religious aim of missions, to the aim of "the possession ofpersons by Christ and the possession by persons of Christ."

A SURVEY of the effect of the war upon missions. (The Inter-

national Review of Missions, October, 1919, pp. 433-490.)The first of a masterly series of articles. This survey is to form an out-

standing feature of the Review in 1920, and will deal not only with thetangible and immediate effects of the war on the different fields, butwill discuss the great movements and their acceleration or retardation bythe war. The present number includes a survey of the position ofGerman missions, and there are excellent statistical tables showing themovement of the various missionary forces. Each chapter is written byan expert, and the series, when finished, will form an extremely valuablereference book.

WATSON, Charles R. Foreign missionary co-operation andunity at the home base in America. (The International Reviewof Missions, January, 1919, pp. 39-52.)

A brief, succinct account of missionary co-operative movements in theU. S. The most influential of these, the annual conference of ForeignMission Boards, is responsible for some of the others. There is a briefstatement of the function and status of each of the co-operative bodies,such as the Missionary Education Movement and the Laymen's MissionaryMovement, which are engaged in publishing co-operative works; theMissionary Research Library, and the Bureau of Statistics and Research;the Board of Missionary Preparation, studying the problems of recruitingand training candidates; and, chief and foremost, the Committee of Ref-erence and Counsel, serving all the Boards. Co-operation in the homefield is shown in the work of the Home Missions Council and the FederalCouncil of the Churches of Christ in America.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

THE TREATY OF PEACE AS AFFECTINGFOREIGN MISSIONS

Below is given a resume of the conditions of the Treaty of Peacewith Germany insofar as they affect foreign missions and countries,

other than European, in which foreign missions are carried on._ Thematerial is arranged under three heads : First, General provisions

which affect mission work; Second, Clauses affecting the disposal of

former German Colonies ; and Third, German relations with foreign

mission lands.

Important provisions have been quoted in full, particularly those

referring to the Mandataries to be established under the League ofNations. Digests have been given where clauses are of less im-portance, and short descriptions of the German Colonies involvedhave been appended in the second section.

The reader should remember that the final disposal of the GermanColonies awaits the decision of the League of Nations, and that the

present treaty does not affect former^ Turkish Territory except inso-

far as the League of Nations provisions are concerned, Germanymerely agreeing beforehand to any dispositions of such territory as

may be decided upon in the treaty with Turkey itself.

GENERAL PROVISIONS AFFECTING MISSIONSMissions. "The Allied and Associated Powers agree that where

Christian religious missions were being maintained by Germansocieties or persons in territory belonging to them, or of which thegovernment is intrusted to them in accordance with the presentTreaty, the property which these missions or missionary societies

possessed, including that of trading societies whose profits weredevoted to the support of missions, shall continue to be devoted to

missionary purposes. In order to ensure the due execution of this

undertaking the Allied and Associated Governments will hand oversuch property to boards of trustees appointed by or approved bythe Governments and composed of persons holding the Christianfaith. It will be the duty of such boards of trustees to see that theproperty continues to be applied to missionary purposes."The obligations undertaken by the Allied and Associated Govern-

ments in this Article will not in any way prejudice their control orauthority as to the individuals by whom the missions are conducted.

Germany, taking note of the above undertaking, agrees to acceptall arrangements made or to be made by the Allied or AssociatedGovernment concerned for carrying on the work of the said missionsor trading societies and waives all claims on their behalf." Annex,Article 438.Opium Trade. By Part X, Section II, Article 295, all the signers

149

150 THE TREATY AS AFFECTING FOREIGN MISSIONS

of the Treaty agree to bring the Opium Convention of The Hague,January 23rd, 1912, into force, and in the case of signers of theTreaty who did not sign the Convention the signing of the Treatywill be considered equivalent.

FORMER GERMAN COLONIES AND POSSESSIONSAFFECTED BY THE TREATY

In Asia: China

Kiau-Chau, located on the east coast of Shantung. Seized byGermany November, 1897 ; acquired by a 99 year lease concludedwith the Imperial Chinese Government March 6, 1898; declared aProtectorate April 27, 1898. On August 15, 1914, Japan called uponGermany to give up the entire leased territory. On November 7th,

Tsingtao, the capital of the Protectorate, fell to British and Japaneseforces, and since then the territory has been administered by the

Japanese. Area, about 200 square miles, population about 192,000.

There are 252 miles of railway (Tsingtao to Tsinanfu) built byGerman capital, and German State cables from Tsingtao to Shanghaiand Chefoo.By Part IV, Section VIII, Article 156, Germany renounces in favour

of Japan all rights in lease, and all property and rights in Shantung,including the railroad, preferential rights of railroad constructionin the Province of Shantung and exclusive rights of mining alongthe course of certain railroads. China's representatives entered aprotest against the above Article, and refused to sign the Treatywhen it was retained.

Hankow and Tientsin, concessions located in these cities, andheld on lease from the Chinese Government.By Part IV, Section II, Article 132, the leases are abrogated.

China, however, is to open the concessions to International trade,

and the property rights of Allied nationals are not affected.

In Africa

Togo, located on the Gulf of Guinea, in West Africa, betweenthe Gold Coast (British) and Dahomey (French). Acquired in

1884, taken by French and British forces August 7, 1914, and now(provisionally) divided into two spheres, administered respectively bythe French and British military. Area, 33,700 square miles, popula-tion 1,031,978. There are 755 miles of road fit for motor traffic, andthree railroads, totalling 191 miles.

THE TREATY AS AFFECTING FOREIGN MISSIONS 151

provisions as it thinks fit in regard to repatriation of German na-tionals and "to the condition upon which German subjects ofEuropean origin shall, or shall not, be allowed to reside, holdproperty, trade or exercise a profession in them."Part I, Article 22, states : "To those colonies and territories which

as a consequence of the late war have ceased to be under thesovereignty of the States which formerly governed them and whichare inhabited by peoples not yet able to stand by themselves underthe strenuous conditions of the modern world, there should beapplied the principle that the well-being and development of suchpeoples form a sacred trust of civilization and that securities for the

performance of this trust should be embodied in this Covenant."The best method of giving practical effect to this principle is that

the tutelage of such peoples should be entrusted to advanced nations

who by reason of their resources, their experience or the geographicalposition can best undertake this responsibility, and who are willing to

accept it, and that this tutelage should be exercised by them asMandataries on behalf of the League. . . .

"Other peoples, especially those of Central Africa, are at such astage that the Mandatary must be responsible for the administrationof the territory under conditions which will guarantee freedomof conscience and religion, subject only to the maintainance of publicorder and morals, the prohibition of abuses such as the slave trade,

the arms traffic and the liquor traffic, and the prevention of theestablishment of fortifications or military and naval bases and ofmilitary training of the natives for other than police purposes andthe defence of territory, and will also secure equal opportunities forthe trade and commerce of other Members of the League. . . .

"In every case of mandate, the Mandatary shall render to theCouncil an annual report in reference to the territory committed to

its charge."The degree of authority, control, or administration to be exer-

cised by the Mandatary shall, if not previously agreed upon by theMembers of the League, be explicitly defined in each case by theCouncil."A permanent Commission shall be constituted to receive and

examine the annual reports of the Mandataries and to advise theCouncil on all matters relating to the observance of the mandates."Part I, Article 23, reads in part; "Subject to and in accordance

with the provisions of international conventions existing or hereafterto be agreed upon, the Members of the League: . . . (will) (b)undertake to secure just treatment of the native inhabitants of terri-

tories under their control."

ject to the rendering of administrative advice and assistance by aMandatary until such time as they are able to stand alone. Thewishes of these communities must be a principal consideration in the

selection of the Mandatary."The portions of Turkey evidently affected by this are

:

The Hedjaz. Located on the west coast of Arabia, extendingfrom El Akabah in the north (approximately) to Shakkat e' Shamieh(approximately) on the south. Declared its independence fromTurkey in November, 1916. Was a signer of the Treaty of Versail-

les, as one of the Allied and Associated Powers. An original mem-ber of the League of Nations signatory of the treaty of peace {PartI, Annex, I). One of the communities formerly belonging to the

Turkish Empire which "have reached a stage of development wheretheir existence as independent nations can be provisionally recognizedsubject to the rendering of administrative advice and assistance by a

Mandatary until such time as they are able to stand alone. Thewishes of these communities must be a principal consideration in the

selection of the Mandatary." {Part I, Article 22, Paragraph 4.)

By Part VIII, Annex VII, Section II, Article 246, Germany restores

tion, however.By Part VIII, Annex VII, Germany renounced in favour of the

Allied powers all rights and title in the Constantinople-Constanza(Roumania) cable.

DIRECTORY

OFFOREIGN MISSION SOCIETIES

Prepared by the

BUREAU OF STATISTICS AND RESEARCH

DIRECTORY OF FOREIGN MISSION SOCIETIES

In preparing the Directory of Foreign Mission Societies for 1920 a

slight change has been made in the arrangement adopted for the 1919

Year Book.

Each Society has been listed according to the country in which its

headquarters is located, as in the previous directory, but eight Socie-

ties whose organization is international in character have been placed

in a separate group. The local councils or committees of these Inter-

national Societies, however, will be found under their respective coun-

tries. The order of the home base countries is as follows: Canada,

United States, International Societies, Australasia, Europe (Great

Britain and the Continent), Africa, South America, Asia, Oceania.

Under Canada and the United States the Societies are arranged

in five groups to conform to the principle upon which the Foreign

Mission Conference is organized:

First, Societies having a definite denominational constituency.

Second, Interdenominational Societies, excepting those which are

distinctively educational.

Third, Interdenominational Societies which are educational. In

the second and third group the term "interdenominational" is used to

signify an organization which is controlled by or which recognizes re-

sponsibility to two or more denominations. The distinction between

educational and non-educational is merely one of convenience.

Fourth, Independent Societies, excepting those which are distinc-

tively educational.

Fifth, Independent Societies which are educational.

Under the first of these groups the Societies are arranged by single

denominations, the key word of the denominational name, by which it

is alphabeted, appearing first. The names of the denominations are

printed in Bold Face Capitals.

Auxiliary Societies, or those having any secondary relation, are indi-

cated by a smaller type. Among these will be found not a few which

are auxiliary to organizations with headquarters outside the United

States. In such cases the names of the main Societies appear above,

in large type, with a reference to the home base country.

The numbers on the right of the names of the Societies are carried

through the Statistical Tables in order to make it possible easily to

identify the official names of the Societies from the abbreviation used

in the tables.

161

162 CANADA

The initials immediately following the name of the Society are those

adopted in the International System. The date given is that of the

founding of the Society. Italicized names of Societies enclosed in

parentheses are names in common use. Names of fields printed in

Italics are those in which work is carried on through some other or-

ganization appearing in the Statistical Tables, or in which it works

through grants in aid only. The political divisions enumerated are

given as they were at the outbreak of the war in August, 19 14.

It should be noticed that a few Home Missionary Societies have been

recorded. This is on account of the work carried on by them in Latin

America, which is considered as a foreign field by the Foreign Missions

Conference.

The International Societies follow those listed under the United

States. They are arranged alphabetically. In this list, and in that of

the Foreign Societies, no attempt has been made to give more than

the name, address and Corresponding Secretary of the organization in

each case. Only sending Societies are entered. Those in English-

speaking countries (Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain and South

Africa), have been placed under largely inclusive denominational

groups, the order being the same as that followed in the World Statis-

tics of Christian Missions, 1916. The Societies in other countries

have been placed in alphabetical order.

A directory of this nature, aiming to give information of the latest

changes in personnel and organization, is subject to constant alteration

and correction. For making note of these changes as they appear in

correspondence, periodicals, and reports, and for supplying information

of new Societies as they are formed, the editor is greatly indebted to

Miss Regina Kohnt, of the Statistical Bureau.

At the outbreakof the war the British Government turned over to the Joint Synod the eightremaining stations of the Hermannsburg Mission and it assumed the financial

responsibility for them, although the actual supervision of the work was in thehands of the missionaries of the "Board of Foreign Missions of the GeneralCouncil of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in North America" and the "Boardof Foreign Missions of the General Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Churchin the United States of America," both of which are now incorporated into the"Board of Foreign Missions of the United Lutheran Church in America." Atthis writing the ELJSO has not only assumed full financial responsibility, butis sending missionaries to the field

STATISTICS

ANNUAL STATISTICS FOR NORTH AMERICAIn presenting the annual statistics of the Foreign Missions Confer-

ence the Bureau wishes first of all to give recognition of Miss Antoi-nette Link, of the staff of the Bureau, upon whom rested the work of

research in collecting the data herewith presented.

Each Society has had the opportunity of correcting the informationgathered from the annual reports. While a few have not taken thetrouble to examine carefully the statements submitted to them, wefeel sure that the following report is reasonably correct. We alwaysrecognize the likelihood of mistakes and shall appreciate having errors

reported to us as they are discovered.

I. Table of Incomes. This tabulation represents the incomes for

foreign missions of each of the Societies having headquarters in Canadaor in the United States. The year presented is the latest fiscal yearending previous to November i, 19 19. It includes the amount ac-

tually expended on the foreign mission field and also the funds re-

ceived during the year and expended at the "Home Base" in

administration, publicity, and investment. It does not include theamounts received on the annuity plan, except in the instances of

matured annuities and the profit on annuities not yet matured, or

what is raised for self-support on the mission field.

II. Field Statistics for Europe, excepting Turkey in Europe. Thistable presents the statistics of the work in Europe under the super-vision of societies of the United States. It will be observed thatmuch of this work in Europe is simply by way of appropriationsin money or in American staff. Where no European staff or otherchurch data are presented it will be understood that the work is underthe direction of the Church in Europe and therefore not properlycredited to the societies in America. During the year some new workhas been begun in Europe, but is not reported because no report hasbeen made for the incomplete first year.

III. Field Statistics of Missions in Latin America. Following thedefinition of Latin America used by the Committee on Cooperationin Latin America, we have included the work of certain Home MissionSocieties which conduct the work of their churches in one or moreareas of the Latin American Group.

IV. Field Statistics for the Missionary Work in the Non-ChristianWorld. The expression Non-Christian World is used for lack of amore satisfactory term. It includes Turkey in Europe, Asia, Africa,

and Oceania. Much the greater part of the work of the Foreign Mis-sion Boards is reported under this group. There are several instances,

notably in Japan, where the indigenous church is self-directing andfor which the cooperating missionary societies of Canada and theUnited States make no report. The totals therefore do not represent,

even in this outline, the full extent of the results of the missionary-

endeavor of the Societies reported. There are other organizations,such as the China Inland Mission, which are international in char-acter or which are auxiliary to societies with headquarters in othercountries. These report either finances only or finances and staff.

V. Footnotes. Attention is respectfully called to the footnotes.These notes include many facts which interpret the records in thestatistical tables. In many instances the entry is not fully clear exceDtin the light of the footnote.

INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM OF INITIALS FORPROTESTANT MISSIONARY SOCIETIES

The complete "International System" of initials for Protestant

foreign missionary societies is appended. This has been adopted as

official by the editors of the Christian Movement in the Japanese

Empire, the Foreign Survey Department of the Interchurch World

Movement and the Bureau of Statistics and Research of the Foreign

Missions Conference of North America. With a few exceptions, it

is identical with the list used in the Directory of Protestant Missions

in China, 1919.

The reader will note that the initials are largely those employed

in the World Statistics of Christian Missions, 1916, but various changes

have been made to bring them into conformity, as nearly as might

be, with the lists already in use in various parts of the world. Other

alterations have been made where it was felt that there was liability

toward confusion, or that the initials previously in use violated the

established usage of the society. Where the initials of a foreign so-

ciety had been made from an English translation of its name rather

than from the original, a change has been made, as in the case of the

"Missionsgesellschaft der deutschen Baptisten," whose initials, MGB,were changed to MDB.

Considerable confusion has arisen in the past from the use of the

letter "A" for both American and Australian, which has been avoided

by substituting "Au" in the case the Australian societies. Similarly,

"As" for "Asia" or "Asian." Canada and China have been distin-

guished in^some^cases by the use of "Ch" for China.

THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASEDr. J. W. Gunning*

The interest in Mission Work is certainly increasing in Holland.More than in any other European country, however, the moneyedclasses are estranged from the Church and its work. It was there-fore a pleasing sign that this year a number of people not belongingto any church urged their friends to support the Mission Work. Butthe result was not encouraging, so that the Societies for MissionWork still cannot meet the requirements of the work in the DutchColonies. It is therefore desirable that consideration be given to thequestion of whether any use can be made of the German Societies.

Important facts are to be noted regarding the cooperation of thedifferent Dutch societies. The "Committee of Advice," correspond-ing to the "Committee of Reference and Counsel" in America, whichwas formed some years ago, continues to develop in the right way.In March, 1919, the "Nederlandsche Zendingsvereeniging" at Rotter-dam, established in 1858, decided to close its training school, andfor the instruction of their prospective missionaries to combine withthe "Nederlandsch Zendelinggenootschap" and the "UtrechtscheZendingsvereeniging," which together founded the Dutch College for

Missionaries. Now that the first mentioned society has becomeaffiliated with this college, unity in the instruction of missionaries

has been established after sixty years. The council for the studyof missionaries, the "Zendingsstudieraad," bought the land anderected the necessary buildings for its yearly conferences. Theywere occupied this summer and were so satisfactory that for 1920

three conferences are planned.Among the German Societies it is especially the "Rheinische Mis-

sionsgesellschaft" which has extensive work in the NetherlandsEast Indies. However, because of the decrease of the value of

German money to the tenth part of what it was this work is en-

dangered too. With the help of the Government a Committee has

been formed to prevent the Rheinische Missionsgesellschaft frombeing compelled to change its funds for Dutchmoney. It seems that

in this way it will be made possible to continue this salutary andblessed work.

Field Review; Political Reform

In 1918 in the Dutch Indies an important^ step was taken in the

decision for self-government for the Colonies. A "Volksraad," a

"Council for the People," was formed, consisting of nearly forty

members, half of whom are elected by different local authorities andthe other half by the Government. The general opinion is that the

* Unfortunately, Dr. Gunning's article on the Continental Home Base was received

frorn Holland too late for insertion in its proper place under the Home Base Reviews.

342

THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASE 343

Governor General has made a very good choice in the persons heappointed members of the "Volksraad. The expectations were notgreat, especially in Holland, but in its first year the "Volksraad"has put to shame all those who were pessimistic about it. The workdoneby it was widely appreciated and it has already acquired such aposition that an extension of its power (at the present only advisory)is in consideration, making it, if possible, at the same time morerepresentative.

What the influence of this will be on Mission Work is not to beseen as yet. It is not impossible that the position of missions will

become more difficult; it is even probable. All education given bythe state, in Holland as well as in the colonies, is absolutely non-religious, and is generally given by people who have broken entirely

with the Church. The opposition to this unreligious school with its

often anti-religious teachers has led in Holland to action on the partof the parents who wanted religious education for their children,

and the result has been an Act of Parliament causing the expensesof private schools under certain conditions to be paid (nearly orquite) by the state. This same principle, it is expected, will befollowed in the East Indies. But it cannot there be urged that theconscience of the parents compels them to demand religious instruc-

tion. The Mohammedans will rather oppose Christian Schools,i. e., Mission schools, or at any rate be easily instigated to opposition.

The animistic heathen will not be driven to opposition, becausethey have no leaders, but on the other hand they can never be said to

want Christian education. If then in the East Indies, PrivateSchools, instead of receiving the present subsidies, are to be treated

financially as on the same footing as State Schools, there is reasonto ask what principles must guide the Government in supportingprivate instruction. The answer seems to be an appeal to theresults of the Private Schools. They have succeeded in acquiringa position in the life of the people. We are speaking now ofelementary schools, for the secondary schools, which enable their

pupils to get a place in the service of the Government, are certainly

popular in the Indies. But the elementary schools, teaching only read-

ing, writing and principles of arithmetic, must always be established

and kept up by force.

Our Missions, however, have succeeded in making this schoolpopular. The Government, then, as it desires to extend education,

cannot do better than support the initiative which for the greater

part is the work of our Mission. For the future of Mission Schoolsin the East Indies much will depend on the question, whetherthoughts such as the above will be entertained in a body like the

"Volksraad," and in the Local Councils which, too, must gain in

importance.

Spiritual Currents in the East Indies

While in general the attitude of the "Volksraad" is appreciated

and the Indian members satisfactorily cooperate with their Europeancolleagues, outside this Council the spiritual leaders of the people,

344 THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASE

more and more, are beginning to take up an attitude of oppositionto the Government, and socialism begins to spread among them.There have already been occasional disturbances as a result of this.

Not that there is any serious undermining of the position of Dutchauthority. But there have been victims, a few Europeans, too, butmostly natives who were instigated by unscrupulous leaders andpaid for it with their lives. This makes the position of the Govern-ment, which is inclined to look favorably on the efforts of the peopleto become politically more independent, very difficult; it is either

considered too progressive or too conservative. Still others thinkthat in general it knows how to find the golden mean. ManyEuropeans, though, hearing the revolutionary speeches of the leadersand seeing the actions to which they lead, are seriously alarmed, andit is perhaps owing to this that the European Press in the Indieshas of late taken a favorable attitude toward Mission Work. Wewill try to profit by this without attaching too much importance to

the minor value of this favorable attitude. On the other hand wehave to consider that the Government will be compelled to take into

consideration the currents among the people (which not long agocould be disregarded because they did not find utterance) and that

the result may be a more reserved attitude toward Mission Work.

Animistic Tribes

The work among the animistic heathen in the Dutch Indies con-tinues prosperously. Their conversion to Christianity seems to beonly a matter of time. With the growth of the parishes comes thequestion of how to bring them to financial independence and also to

spiritual independence. It seems that for the former it will benecessary to establish funds, because the social position of the native

Christians is such that they cannot afford to keep up their churchesby annual gifts. We are considering encouraging them to buy andcultivate ground by advancing the money; they will have to paythis back from the profits in the first years, while later on these

profits must serve to support the parish. All efforts to educate themto greater spiritual independence meet a great obstacle in the

mentality of the natives, who generally lack will-power. As soon as

they have taken the missionaries for their leaders, they let them-selves be guided, which means for them that they obey them implicitly,

without asking the wherefore, and without trying to learn how to

apply the principles of Christianity in any particular case. Manydecennaries will have to go by before we shall find independentChristian parishes and Church life. Sometimes this final end seemshopelessly far off; but there is the more reason not to overlook the

signs, certainly not wanting, which show that there is progress, anda possibility of reaching the aim.

Mohammedans

Referring to what was said in the preceding Year Book about the

two currents in the Mohammedan world, it can be stated here that

THE CONTINENTAL HOME BASE 345

the prospects of mission work among Moslems are really morefavorable than ten years ago. Concentrating all energy on theanimistic tribes was then often seriously considered. At presenta proposal in this direction is not thought of. We do not mean to

say that a conversion "en masse" among the Mohammedans may beexpected. But among the more cultured Mohammedans in Java,where civilization is greater than among the animistic tribes in

the other islands, there are more points of contact than before, andthere is among them a curiosity concerning Christianity, which mustbe satisfied. Some medical missionaries and teachers have succeededin camping out in the mountains these last three years with somecivilized and Dutch-speaking Javanese, as is the custom among youngpeople in America and in Europe. The results are mutual trust andties of friendship, which are kept up by correspondence. At theMission Conference held at Soerabaja in September, 1918, a Com-mittee was appointed which will consider the means of getting into

touch with the ex-pupils of the Dutch schools for natives, especially

with the Christians among them. More indirect mission work seemsnecessary, not aiming at increasing the number of Christian mem-bers of the Church so much as at pervading the natives of Java withChristian^ principles to prevent the civilized Javanese from passingChristianity or rather Christ, without stopping to think of Him.

Dutch Schools for Natives

The demand for these schools is increasing, and our missionmust try to meet this demand. But there are drawbacks which mustnot be overlooked. The Mission has always tried to let the nativespreserve their nationality. Now that they want complete Dutchinstruction there is the danger that they will lose their nationalcharacter and incur all the misery which is involved in this loss.

It must be required of every Dutch teacher in a native school that

he study the language of his pupils and their culture. This is, alas,

often impossible, because these schools have to be established in soshort a time. Yet it does not seem advisable that our Mission shouldstop founding them because it can better neutralize the dangersconnected with these schools than the Government can.
